im replacing my suspension on my DA. I was considering getting tein s-tech springs and the kyb gr2 shocks. would this be a good setup? any other recommendations on parts? i will also be replacing my lower control arms and getting a camber kit.

 

Stay away from KYB GR-2 and Tokico HP shocks. They're good for OEM replacement but not much else, especially not for any sort of performance-oriented setup.

Why are you replacing your control arms?

Why are you getting a camber kit? Do you plan on racing and dialing in more negative camber than you get from the drop? You certainly won't need it to prevent tire wear, as the myth continues to make people believe.

Skip the camber kit, and put that money towards a better damper than the GR-2's, like Tokico Illuminas or Koni Sports (my preference).

 

if your looking for a good spring combo, kyb agx's and neuspeed races are good on that car.

 

I run the Skunk2 Pro S coilovers on my DA and they are great for a street car IMO. Definetly worth the money, i don't think i paid over $400 for the whole set and that's a complete set...springs, struts, urethane upper mounts.

 

im lookin into buying some skunk2 pro-c coilovers

 

Man, if I could give you any advice to take from this thread it would be to save your money and buy good quality stuff from the beginning. You don't wanna be riding on some **** suspension that you have to keep replacing just so you can have a lowered car. Just do it right the first time and you'll never regret your decison to wait.

 

No need for a camber kit and Gr2's suck for any kind of drop. My DA had Koni/GC and DIY extended top hats. But for S-techs Tokico Illumnas would do work.
