Tough Decisions, Tough Decisions...
I am moving out of my parents house now that I have a good job and am forced with a decision. I am leaving Aug. 1st. I want to either get the Tein Flex suspension and EDFC or a B18B motor complete with i/h/e. What road do you all think would provide the most enjoyment out of my EH2? I have tried thinking about this for weeks and continue to save up but I thought I would throw the question out to ya'll. Thanks for any input.

To elaborate...I plan on doing autocross so I want a good sus. but I also need the ***** to back it up...Basically comes down to speed first or handling first.

alright....
IMO, it's funner banging corners and auto-crossing than it is to be able to punch it, and then slow down before you plow into the curb
I can have a car with a decent suspension setup, which will....brake, turn, look, and feel 10x more solid than a car with a b18 swap. So MANY parts of the car improve with a stable suspension as stated above.
I guarantee you that with the same driver and the same car on the same autocross course, with 2 identical cars minus coilovers/or b18....the hatch with the suspension will run better times.
And since you said you wanna have fun autocrossing????? Well....stock hatches have HORRIBLE body roll in stock form

Re: Tough Decisions, Tough Decisions... (Emerika)
Alright...my minds made up...that is what I thought...appreciate your answer. I will have to suffer for a few extra weeks (month) till I swap in the motor. I am also getting the Energy suspension kit and some new lca's and a camber kit along with the suspension. What bushings need to be put in by someone with a press?

I want a awesome suspension within my bounderies. IF anybody knows a better suspension for 1400 + 350 for edfc than lemme know.
