Default Apex'i WS Damper system? any itr onwers running this?

thinking of getting a set. What do you think is this system worth swaping out the already good itr system. Also im getting it used for a very good price.

The only thing about the WS setup is that you can only adjust ride height, but I have heard of people being really pleased with them. How much are you getting them for anyways. I have the N-1's on my car and I love them. The reason I asked how much you are getting them for is, you could probably fine the 99' Spec N-1's for a really good price being they are not making them anymore and are now making the 00' Spec.

its a good street system. I would definitly want something more for the track but for daily driving the ride is decent. I wish the dampening was adjustable but i probally wouldn't play that much with it any away. I give a

reason my car handles like *** is because the spring rates in the rear aren't stiff enough. got some eibach goodness on its way as we speak....

They are good for street use, (Had WS's on my old Type R). They were really good for street but I ended up geting N1's on my 1st Hybrid. Now I'm on my second and because I don't want to dump thta much money into the new hybrid i decided to go back with WS N1's.

Hey citanest, you have any experience with the N-1's? My car handles better than it did stock and they are much stiffer than it was stock with the front set on 2 and the back set on 1. I did ride around with them turned all the way up for while and it was still tolorable.

$350? Nah, you couldn't get N-1's for that price, but that is a crackhead price and I would take full advantage of it if I were you.

yes, I personally tried stock, Apexi 99 N1 with and without pillowmount, Tein RA and Zeal B2. I have to say Apexi is the worst out of all. RA is way to stiff for street, almost needed a kidney transplant, but the best at the track. B2 is a good compromise for both street and track. Apexi N1, YUCK!!!
