Sorry but I'm on sure of which suspension to get for 03 type -s, I want a nice ride. I was looking to see if anybody has the JIC's, Mugen, Tanabe or Tein, etc.
I live out in Boston and the street are all messed up, I want to be able to drive over a bump and not feel it. I had Tein SS in a 90 4dr civic w/ls motor and I loved the ride. I want to get something nice for my DC5. What do you guys recommand?? TIA

If you want a suspension with a good ride and great balance, look at the A-Spec kit. The Mugen is also nice, but a bit firmer ride. Add a 22mm rear sway bar and the car will be nicely balance for the street.

I'm running a similar setup with ITR suspension and a ITR rear 22 mm sway. it's a good combo.

 

anybody else recommand something else??

 

are the teins ss pretty good?

 

the tien ss are awsome i have them the ride is great and you can hadle good as hell and they are very good for the track. they are deffinetly worth the money

 

Mugen is simple and easy, just bolt on and go, gives it a good ride height for daily driving and is comfortable, not rough at all. I am very satisfied with mine, as most others are as well.

tanabe sustec pros type II should be out end of this month. ep3 omni's should be out around the same timeframe as well (for ep3 bubbas).

 

If you want the BEST suspension, FIGHTEX (by Todaracing) is the way to go, although they are geared towards track usage. You gotta be big ballin though, cuz a set for the dc5 will run you 3100.

I don't think they are the best. they are good. but not the best.
