Just spend a lot of money. For the most part you get what you pay for. As long as it doesn't say mugen or someshit like that on it. That is severly overpriced. I'm not calling it junk. Just overpriced.

coilover = adjustable ride hight and depending on what you get dampaning adjustable to. and then you have sleave coil overs and full coilvers. a full coil over would be a setup that includes a shock aswell as the spring.

I am also curious as to whats the best suspension setup to get. As for ride and handling. Right now i have Tokico blue's for my front. So what would be the best Spring/Coilovers to get?

I say get the Tein type RE. I have them and they are awesome. Really stiff rates though. 14k,10k. I think they are definately worth the money.

try not to think so much about which is the very best, think more like which is the best...for you. what do you want to do with your car?

if you want it adjustable, get a coilover. if you cand find a set of springs that have a nice rate/drop that you like and you don't really feel the need to raise or lower it all the time, get those.

i don't know too much about the different models available. is that for track use? that sounds way too high for the street. im guessing you meant 1400f, 1000r

he's using metric nomenclature for spring rates. it's 14 kg/mm, 10kg/mm.

1400 lbs/ft would definitely be unstreetable, unless there are only near perfect roads around him.

Yea, he's right. They are 783f, 559r. in pounds. Still really stiff for daily driving, a little on the uncomfortable side. But definately worth it for the corners.

I am just going to go with the H&R Cup Kit. It comes with everything and is about $600. It give your car an awsome 2" drop front and rear.

My friend has that on his civic, and it sucks. I think there is more body roll and less handling now, than there was when it was stock.

I keep hearing good things about Omni. I heard he's coming out with some that have adjustable dampening.

Those are hella expensive. And, aren't they a race-only coilover?
