Default trade LSD for coilovers?

i'm considering getting rid of my GSR trans. the gearing is too short for highway driving with my LS engine. gears 1 and 2 are the same in the LS and GSR trans, and I never go above 2nd racing. but, i don't want to give up my kaaz LSD.

i'd plan to trade my GSR for an LS trans + cash, and then use that cash to pay for a true damper system for my civic (tein or JIC)

so, for all you autoX gurus.... is it worth it to lose the LSD to gain true coilovers?

yep. what Frank said

LSD should be more of a concern to anyone with any type of cornering , keep it then upgrade your suspension when you get a little extra money

i already have AGX and drop springs. i just don't think the rates are right for my car. skunk2 eh. the AGX will handle them? i thought c-sleeve rates were much too high for a non-shortened strut?
