I have four obx coilsleeves on my car right now with stock shocks. It bounces like crazy.
Should I buy some KYB gr2 shocks to try with the obx or do I need to save up and get some better springs?
Does anyone have decent rides with OBX coilsleeves?

I would have to say OBX springs are crap but thats just my opinion. Suspension is what makes or breaks a steet car. I consider it to be one of the most important things on a car. I would save up and get a good quality suspension. I have Tein SS, its the best upgrade i've done to my car.

i used to run tein flex's and loved them, but before those, i've always like ground controls paired up with koni yellows. you can firm them up when you feel a little aggressive or tone them down for a long drive.

GR-2s are a stock replacement, so it won't change anything. Koni Yellows would be needed to properly dampen that srpingrate; but they are a pretty stiff and low quality spring, so you still may have a pretty crappy ride.

yes, do both. I'm partial to the GC/Koni Yellow setup myself, but there are a lot of combinations out there that'll give you good ride quality.

Re: Suspension (eg6hatch94)
now that eveyone has told you what to buy. have you cut your bumpstops accordingly? if you did not cut your bumpstops that could be causing an issue with your bouncing!!!!
