Default Which Coilover/spring & strut combo?

Making my wish list for my build when I get back from Iraq, but I am stuck on which spring/coilover to use and/or which strut. This is for a 94 coupe, will be a DD but also a weekend track toy. So something with a nice ride quality but something a little stiff.

From your guys experience, what do you recommend?


Thanks!

Tein are great if you have a couple g's laying around? The skunk2's are on sale for under 600 at jhpusa and the Omni's are allways around 600

Psh, good shock and spring combo. F coilovers.

If you know what ride height you want I recommend against coilovers.

koni/tokico illuminas for shocks.

And some progressive spring, tein s-tech, H&R sport/race Eibach.

I'm really digging my GC/AGX combo....probably not good for track days but plenty fun around the street. Adjustable ride height FTW!

Thanks for your guys input, I am looking into all the setups you guys mentioned.

I had Eibachs on Koni Yellows on my CRX, they were a little stiff for my liking.

Thanks again!
