What would a good affordable suspension setup be for a eg(that will have a b series engine of some kind whenever my money trees starts to sprout)... not gonna be auto xing or anything so nothing crazy is needed..just a good handling car is what Iam looking for. So what should I get and what brands...

Also if I wanted to do some sort of a brake upgrade or swap what would I all need and how much woudl this all cost... thinking of a gsr swap if possible(I know nothing about brakes)

Thanks for the info all

My new setup(little secret info for all you foos) is going to consist of KYB AGX shocks and ITR springs. Add some swaybars to the mix and your cool!


Shocks-$300 on ebay brand new
ITR Springs-$50~100

 

I just did H&R Sports and KYB AGX's and I love it.

 

Dampeners: KYB/AGX For like $350.00 or so you get high-quality 4-way adj. struts with lifetime warranty. I had some and loved them.

From there it's your choice of springs/coil-overs.

Don't forget the camber kit and alignment!

Add rear lower control arms from any 1994-up Integra and their 14mm rear bar for cheapo and you're set!

 

how do skunk2 ride?

 

ok now for the stupidest question I have ever asked on this board(jeez this makes me feel like I just joined last week) what is a chamber kit and what does it do???

also would any tower bars, sway bars, or tie bars be in need???

Never hear of a CHAMBER kit, but a CAMBER kit allows you to adjust your CAMBER.

I thought you said cheap?

 

if you don't know what camber is... look at some dumped *** car with out a camber kit, notice the tires are really angled and not sitting flat on the pavement? thats called negative camber.

 

ok so I know I need coil-overs and shocks... are the controll arms(would you mind explaining what these do) and chamber kit nessesary if I just want a ride that handles good(eg with a b series in it). Thanks for your help...sorry again for the dumb questions...making me feel stupid...
