Don't even start that crap please. That's a way to hi-jack a topic, so don't go there.
Some people don't want the H22A in their cars - deal with it.</TD></TR></TABLE>
I wasn't starting crap. Don't take every post so seriously.

Re: Just ordered motor (dose)
After I complete the swap. Im saving for suspension, then rims/tyres. Im kinda set on what rim tyre combo im going to get. My hatch is that stock teal color. Im going to get some sports bronze C8's (15's) wrapped in azenis.
I saw a post in archive by newman about the tein basics on his Ek h22 hatch....His review made me think twice about the basics.. Sounds like a nice ride to me according to him....
This car is not a track car, I may take it to the track maybe once or twice a year. But I do like reasonable stiff suspensions. Im not talking mad stiff like when you hit a bump your head hits the roof heh.... Just want to hold my own on the track/road.
Also, which ever way I go about suspension. I want the height to be adjustable.. Thats mainly why im thinking tein basics right now. Ill be looking into Koni Yellow and the GC setup though. Just kind of hard to decide because I have never driven in a car with the Koni setup yet. However the Eclipse GST I had before this hatch had a set of tein S-Tech on it, and it wasnt as stiff as I wanted it to be. But surely was a nice ride for everyday driving
Thanks for the positive comments guys... Engine is due sometime next week! cant wait lolz

Re: Just ordered motor (Jahtoot84)
I am running basically the same setup as Tom, but with a little stiffer spring-RSR race(blue)downs. Dont go nuts on struts unless you plan on some hardcore driving like autocrossing or worse. Im sure Tom has autocrossed before with the KYB's, plus Im also sure they would hold up anyways. Theres not point in going with a full Tein damper at least for what you have plans of doing, it would just be a waste of money, so Im glad your not even considering that.

Well IMO KYB AGX adjustable struts along with some Ground Control coil-over sleeves might be your best bet then.
I did auto-X with my KYB-AGX adj. struts with old-school Skunkworks coil-overs and I liked the combo.

Wont that give him more bounce though on a coilover opposed to a stiff spring, even say he doesnt go the the "soft" S tech Tein, he could get RSR, Apexi, etc.
