Default ek suspension

i can get a deal on some tein ha's for $500 w/12k miles OR a set of ground controls for $100, extended top hats for $135 and whatever for a set of new tokico blue's

need opinions quick, thank you thank you. i drive a lot, road trips from the bay area to L.A. and after 5 years of doing that in 2 crx's both with solid position race buckets comfort is now becoming high on my list as well

I think I'd go with the Teins in this case.

Ground Controls are as good as the shocks you use them with. And blues aren't good for more than an inch drop. And if you're getting GC's, you're probably dropping more than an inch.

Yeah, if you get the ground controls you should pick up a set of koni yellows, which will set you back around $450 or more, so it will be cheaper for you to get the teins, and they make pretty good stuff.

if you are going to track them get some tein HA's. If your going to hardpark and don't really have any other purpose for your car then tokico's with springs should be what your looking for.
