Koni/GC - Bilstein B16 PSS9 - Zeal Function X
Yes, another comparison post
-- Thanks guys for your input.
I'm looking to switch out my TEIN Flex coilovers on my 05 RSX-S for a higher quality damper set that'll stand up to a +20kg rear spring upgrade. What do you guys think of the above? I am a serious autocrosser so I would appreciate detailed responses and experiences with running these. I'm more interested in the performance differences between the three; price differences are secondary. I know Bilstein hasn't released their PSS9 for the RSX yet, but I'm keeping my hopes up.
I'd be more inclined to go Koni/GC, but I'm worried through requesting revalved rear dampers and heavy custom spring rates, something may not match up and I'll end up with headaches (read an ugly post somewhere in this forum that got me pessimistic). I'd much appreciate hearing success stories related to this type of upgrade though!

Update: From Bilstein's application guide, they don't have a PSS9 in development for the RSX ... and I just found out that the Zeal coilovers relocated their steering arm making them illegal for STS ...
never mind.
I'll probably just revalve my existing rear dampers.
