Hi
I am building a 95 Civic into a planned "all-rounder". The idea with the car is for it to be competent in Street Driving, Drags and occasional open Circuit event (track day).
I am aware that each dicipline requires a unique setup tailored to suit the use for optimal performance - however I am looking for a Suspension setup that will enable me to setup the car to be able to do all three reasonably well.
What is the best Suspension (Springs/Shocks/Coilovers) for this :
I currentky have a set of Tokico Illumina 5 way adj shocks I could use - should I get a set of Skunk2 Sleeveovers to work with these or go for Full Coilovers ??
Options :
Tokico Illumina with Skunk2 sleeveovers
Skunk2 Pro S
Skunk2 Pro C
Megan Racing
BC BR series
Tein Super Street
any other suggestions ??
Thanx in advance

I have tokico illumina's with ground control coilovers and love them! I have had this setup for like 5 years! It is a great all around setup too! I used to autox it before i got my s2k and it did awesome. I only drag race it since then though and they work pretty good for it too! I cut consistent 1.67-1.69 60fts with my old worn out 24.5x8.5x13 m&h slicks. They have more than 100 passes on them. lol They aren't bad at all on the street either... On full soft they are extremely smooth riding for coilovers.

Ok thanx
If I were to keep the illumina's - what spring rates would be recommended to suit my goals ??
Which brand of Sleeveovers would be recommended ??
