Default Apex'i N1 Pro Dampers

I am looking in to getting a set of these coilovers used off of someone on here.
https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1017480

I am looking for anyone with experience with this setup and any comments that they may have. How did you like them street/track? How do they compare to other high end coilovers (zeal, buddy club, JIC)? and how much would you pay for a similar setup?

I run them the DC2-R spring rates on my 93 hatch. The ride is soo freaking stiff. The car doesnt move at all, it just hops. You can also feel every bump. The problem is i run these on the street daily, no track yet.

Many of you might think its dumb what i did but i got them brand new for cheaper then a set of Tein Flex's probably.

Besides all that though, handling is great. Takes curves like a Champ!

So no complaints? How do you like the performance aspects? and what rates are you running?

Yes I do complain but when im talking about street use or at least daily. Everything in my car is loose right now. My dash shakes sometimes when i hit little bumps. Im not sure what the rates are. i just know theyre the DC2 Type R ones. I can probably outhandle most cars tho but whats the point for me if im on the street...

So for you the performance is there but you are not sure if that outways the comfort factor?
