Default whats your Suspension set-up?

I'm looking to get a good full coilovers set-up if I can...a few options i've been thinking are Omnipower or Tein. Both are great kits, but are possibly a little more than i'd like to spend. Does anyone have any good riding spring & shock combinations for a good price, or does anyone know of any other good brands for a full coilovers?

I'd also very much consider buying a used set of full coilovers as well.

Any input would be great, thanks guys!

Omnipower Coilovers are a great buy, for a daily driver. If thats all it will be, don't spend more. Its all you'll need.

If you want to actually start tracking the car, you'll want to look more into higher end suspension. Omnipower is really an entry level setup.

Wait, though, on the EFs isn't there a problem with the Omnis not lowering all the way in the front, or something? I don't want to spread this unless I have full details on what the deal is. Someone want to post about it?

I think that they fixed the problem. There is another thread about it somewhere.

Oh yeah? Thats cool. I'll do something rare and unheard of, I'll -search- for that thread, instead of making a new post about it.

(I wish everyone else would search every now and then, too)

I'm not an e thug. But I am tired of seeing your worthless posts in every damn thread. You say nothing productive to the original poster and always complain about seeing a few threads on the same thing.

Obviously, you've seen 3 or 4 of my posts in the 10 or so intake threads. Those are the only threads I have complained in regards to people never searching. If you really think that I don't ever contribute anything, well... think what you want, I know what the **** I contribute and what I don't.

Is it productive to have multiple threads about the same thing, even on the same damn page? No. Half the time, I post in them so I can remember on my watched topics list so I can PM the thread to a moderator so they can lock 'em up. Like it or not, its ******* ridiculous to see that kind've ****. If you don't like me complaining about it, well, to ******* bad.

If you've got a damn problem with something, PM me next time, no need to bring it out on the damned forum.

I am running the stock rate GC coilovers on KYB AGX struts plus the stock dx front sway bar and no rear bar I like the setup but I am probably going to add a rear bar for the sedan.

apparently..you're going through as many threads as he is..and he..unlike you is actually responding to people. post *****? have you taken any notice to his post count and number of years he has been a member? when you have been around as long as him and i.. )which might i add..a 3 full ******* years longer than you. nub.) you tend to get REALLY annoyed when someone asks an asinine question when we know..for a fact that its been covered multiple, multiple times.

so on a lighter note, quit your goddamn complaning..because from the looks of things..you're the one being a little bitch.
