Should I get some...
Should I get some shocks/struts to go with my Skunk2 coilover sleeves or should I spend some loot on some real coil-overs? My purpose of the vehicle is to daily drive it and eventually do some auto cross and Road Racing. Oh yeah and occasional mountain runs too...
Thanks H-T

If you have the money go for the full coilover kit. Kits like Tein and Tanabe are good. Otherwise, getting some Koni Yellows or Bilstein to go with your Skunk2's will work out fine, but you might be happier with the full coilover system.

Re: Should I get some... (EkREV)
i dont know about others...but for everyday driving...i think u should just get some nice adjustable shocks..
theres no use for true coilovers when u dont get to use it often....

Full coilver suspension sounds nice...but I wouldn't BEGIN to know what to do with 22 way adjustability. (maybe its just me) I'd probably mess things up. 
If you're not a suspension buff...I'd go with the sleeves + nice shocks combo that was posted above.

i assume he dosen't live at that exact location and had to drive there...so how does it ride at that heigth?? it would have to bounce to some extent to keep from sparking the WHOLE pan of the damn car.
