Don't you need to finish putting your car together first?

Dont get Buddy Club. I have the N+'s on a hatch I am trying to sell and dont like them one bit. Very crappy ride. I have tried to mess around with the setting and they dont help much. I would never want them on the track, but thats just me. If you want them only for the street, I guess you could get away with them, but thats about all they are good for IMO. I would consider them in the same braket as that D2, Function/Form, Ksport, Megan garbage that is flooding the market.

The old Tein's I used to have (HA's) where so much better. If I was you I would go with Tein (RA, RE, RS, N1's). Flex are pretty nice for the street, but I wouldnt get them if you are planning to hit up some track days.

Zeals are pretty nice from what I have read, but never owned a set, yet. So cant say much on them.

N+'s and Racing Spec's are two different systems.

Racing Specs are great for autox/HPDE, but I wouldn't want to daily drive them. N+'s are more the daily driver coilovers.

I use them on my H2 car and I know Franza used to use them. I wouldn't call them the best, but since I have nothing to compare them to except stock, can't say anything negative. I used them on the street for a few 100 miles (10K front / 12K rear) in NYC and I actually liked them a lot over the crappy roads.

If I was going to start racing again, I would just sell the Buddy Clubs and use Ground Control, Eibach springs (800/1100), and Koni's re-valved to handle the high rates.
