Default what suspension to buy??

I want to drop my car this summer and I dont really know that much about suspension. I dont want to be spending over a grand so what are some good coilovers to get. I was thinking about H&R or Ground Control. Also, will I need to buy new shocks and what are some good brands for a good price? Im thinking about a 1.5 inch drop so will I need a camber kit? Thanks for the help

hey man I just recently got the KYB AGX/ Eibach pro-kit combo..I love it!!
I have about 2 finger widths all around... it stiffened up the ride alot plus TO ME, the ride quality is a bit better than stock.. but around corners it feels really tight and stiff...I give them a !!

hope that helped!

if you are only going to be at the drag strip(same as me) then go with a skunk2 setup...you can add shocks later on if you want.

If you want soft and nice ride. Get like Sprint 1.5" and KYB if you want Coilover get Ground Control (Street) and Tokico Illumina...

I have a 97 GSR and I just got a Tokico/Eihbach coilover setup. It is kick ***! plus I got a fat deal on it. They are fully adjustable with five dampness settings. I love the ride! Handles excellent!

i have koni yellow/hr oe combo with itr suspension bits (i like it, good all around not too stiff. but would like the adjustabilty of compression) lowering would be cool to.

i would just spend the money and get zeal b2 coilovers

more flexibilty, and the shock/spring are designed to go with each other from the start

btw, if you go with coilovers. do yourself a favor and get your car cornerweighted and balanced. you arent geting the full potential of your suspension if you dont do it

You should get nex, these are what I just put on my car and they seem to be very good car handels nice. They come with shocks as a package deal but you will need a camber kit. They run for around $700. Not bad for a package deal.
