Default suspension choises?

I want to know if this set up is good for street and road course racing?

I am able to get a good deal on a full tien suspension set up from japan, the one with the reverse rear lca's, but no prob. the set up will come with them.

Aren't tien made for drifting?

^ Nice respone

Yeah, how good is the deal? Tein isn't necessarily just for drifting. A lot of h-t users roll with them. My personal choice is H&R with tokico illuminas or KYB. Everyone and their mom is about to reply to this with 100 different suspension setups. Go with a nice set of spring and a $300-$600 range for your shocks. If you want to go on a limb and save some cash, there's always a good ebay special on tokico illuminas with factory lowering springs with a 2.5-2.3 drop. I've heard good things.

A very nice setup that I particularly like are the koni yellow's with ground control or skunk2 sleeves and springs. I know you can get custom spring rates with the GC's witch its nice. But it all depends on how agressive you want to be. Koni all the way
