Re: *thinking of new suspension setup* (jisu009)
I have a Suspension Techniques solid rear sway bar and a DA front sway bar with ES endlinks.
I just got done installing all of the suspension stuff and so far it feels very neutral.
We had a little snow here yesterday and it would oversteer just slightly if I started to slide around a corner.
Very easy to control

Kinda off-topic, but does anyone know what spings the guy from http://www.fourthgenhatch.com used on his hatchback before it was stolen/stripped?

89 si - tokico blues with neuspeed Race springs
it sat very nicely, it was kinda rough for a DD but i got use to it fast. handeld awesome though and loved how it sat. this pic is with out my camber kit in. which i got a few weeks later and IS needed for this setup pr it will eat your tires.

With his avoidance of mentioning his setup.. i vote cut springs...
Its not all about the look when you drop a car... ride quality is a weeee bit more important.
My eg is low... but its all about center of gravity on my track car... it is running 16k/14k rates after all... so i wasn't thinking comfort

W/O show cars there'd be no JDM class
anyways, i think i'm the only one on here that doesn't like GC's. i'm going back to skunks(probably try the full coilover system). i felt they rode way better at the height i like, GC's where just way too bouncy for me

Without showcars... there'd be less ricers.

DOUBTFUL, but that term is thrown around so much it's meaning is in the eye of the beholder. what, "ricer" originally was ment for any modified import by doubters of imports

Re: *thinking of new suspension setup* (B18aHatch)
nice drop..i'm also looking for a set of springs or coilovers...just not sure what kind. its my daily driver and i don't want too harsh of a ride, but also want a good drop to make it look good. i know the pro-kit doesn't drop the car much but anyone with pics of crx with pro kit? or the sportlines? how about the neuspeed, or h&r do they drop the car way too much for a DD?
