Default is my Suspenion TOO Stiff??????????

i have a 94 si. im currently without my license, but have been buying a **** load of stuff for my car. im really into suspension after i test drove an ITR. i know the ITR is stiff. I have a type R sway bar. Type R rear strut bar. Also plan on getting Tein SS coilovers, and a Lower Tie bar, AND changing out all bushings with energy suspenion. Is this too much for my hatchback? i know it will have alot of control, and thats what i want. but will it feel uncomfortable? ????????

With the Tein SS and poly bushings, yeah for most people it will be considered harsh. That, however, is relative..... it depends on your needs and tolerance.

I did the poly bushings on my front suspension so far and it did make a difference in stiffness. Mine were really shot so it seems like a put in higher spring rates. I don't think it made it that bad though. What made a big difference is when I put the poly inserts in my engine mounts. I glued the poly inserts into the mounts with polyurethane glue, that made the car and dash rattle a lot, and I've only put the left one on for now, that seems to be the really weak one. Made a big difference. I like it though. I have a shitty CD player and when playing cd's they skip a lot now. Handles so much better though.

So, in recap, it's gonna be a stiff ride. It is all relative though. It's all what you want out of the car.
