I have noticed that a lot of people want to know what kind of suspension other people are using, So I thought that the PRELUDE forum needed an official thread dedicated to just suspension. (If this needs to be deleted, Then I'm sorry!)

Post Pictures!

 

Tein HA with Pillowball mounts

 

D2 RS on my 4th gen

no pictures yet, sorry

 

Lets get some Tech info up in here. i know we got plenty of guys that base their lude mostly on suspension, so lets see that info all piled up in here

 

I would actually know what alignment some people run on their auto-x ludes... that are still streetable

 

D2's here too.

My ugly car--







It's a fun street car, but I certainly don't claim anything other than that.

 

i got eibach sportlines on stock shocks. planning to get koni yellows.

 

I'm thinking of getting the Tanabe Sustec pro s-oc coil over kit. any one know pros cons seems like a good street/track set up, i'm thinking of putting with their sustec front strut bar and neuspeed front and rear sway bars. haven't decided on rims and tires yet

Koni Yellows Lowest Perch Skunk 2 Coilovers

 

Besides Koni Yellows, what are some good aftermarket shocks to use that are moderately priced? I've heard AGX's are pretty good as well?

 

depends on how much of a drop it is. i've heard AGX's aren't THAT good for anything greater than 2 inches.

tokico illumina's are def

 

just got my kyb agx's in the mail today.. had one blown shock so the tires wore funny. should i replace the shocks and tires then get it aligned? or can i replace the tires after i get it aligned?

 

I just put on Neuspeed Race Springs on stock shocks...looks good! And the ride is very nice...not really bumpy at all! Pictures are coming soon!

 

Aight, I got pictures!











Can't really tell in the pix like I thought you could...But they are Neuspeed Race Springs which are 2.25 in the front and 2.0 in the rear...Rides really well!

 

how are you guys liking the d2 coilovers? never seen them before I don't think, I was planning on koni yellows w/ H&R sport/coilover. i'm assuming d2 are a wee bit more expensive?

TRUST me, they're gonna settle

wait... did you cut the bumpstops??

 

what do you mean "cut out the bump tops?" I didnt cut anything off....I took my old springs off and put the Neuspeed ones on...

 

Type Basic's

I'm thinking about lowering it a little bit more then get an allignment.

 

i get my allignment tomorrow for free... glad i work at Goodyear now!

 

Koni Yellows on middle perch with H&R Race.

 

Has anyone tried or heard any info on Function Form 24-Way Adjustable Coilovers? I am interested and any info will help.

since you didn't replace your shocks, you don't know what the bumpstop is.
but i used to have the neuspeed sports, and when i put the neuspeed race's in, it was the same exact height.
i realized this was because i didn't cut the bumpstops, and i was driving on the bumpstops.
after i took my suspension out and cut them in half, it dropped my car like another 1/2" all around

 

im fine with my drop as of right now, im getting new rims and tires soon so i think its fine with stock rims/tires/shocks.

 

soo.. how about those d2 coilovers? pricing? reviews? how woudl those compare to H&R sport w/ koi yellows?
