Need to do suspension. Can't afford the coilovers I want, so I want the best alternative. I was thinking Eibach Pro Kit with Koni Yellows. Mostly autocross, and would want to do road racing eventually. Anyone else have any recomendations?

GC + koni yellow

i know u said you cant afford the coil overs u want. im assuming u mean something like tein so i mentioned GC.

better yet, GC with custom tailored spring rates

redline201

sounds good to me

i think b18c5-eh2 uses the gc with custom spring rates with the koni yellows

if it works for him
maybe it will be good for you

Or Truechoice. Same stuff. Though GC is 2.5 diameter,
Truechoice is 2.25. Lighter!!

eepee interesting. wouldnt u need new shock hats to accomodate this?

Eee Pee

Well, I bought a *Solution* kit. These include a *top hat* (not the right wording)
that fits into the stock top hat. Its a machined and anodized piece.

Like this, the red part that will fit into the top hat.

ahh..and for the bottom?

Eee Pee

The threaded sleeve fits on a c clip on the shock. There are a few different positions for the c clip.

I guess this is why GC sleeves need a spacer between the shock and the sleeve. Right?

rs*r down springs(blue) $100+shipping from http://www.turboimport.com
tokiko blue(non-adjustable) $2-300 depends where you go.

AAhhhh.....truechoice, totaly forgot about them. Gonna check them out.

If I was to order custom spring rates, from whom and what spring rates work best for street and autocross?

Eee Pee

350-500 lbs.

350 to 500, or 300 front, 500 back? Sorry for my ignorance, new at this.

Also, for anyone familiar with the Truechoice coilovers, the Konis they use are the Sport, correct, the externally adjustable onces?

id got with gc's and koni yellows...i have gc's and kybs, which work perfect for daily driving

Ive heard that you go with the higher spring rate on the front (to compensate for the motors weight) Somebody please correct me if Im wrong!!!
