Default Best suspension setup for the money?

I had been looking at skunk stuff but it's very pricey but then I came across this package it seems like a great deal. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Eibac...#ht_2846wt_948

Do u guys consider skunk stuff over priced for what u get. I have a 00 si and is this a good upgrade over stock?

Not this agaain!

You need to add more info.

-What is your budget?
-What are your plans for the car?
-Is this your daily driver?
- What other suspension upgrades do you have? Are you still runing the stock 26F/13R sway bars?

I do consider Skunk2 suspension products overpriced for what you get. You can do much better for not much more, sometimes even less.

Skunk2 suspension is not quality

yet another noob with an attitude, who knows noithing.

How are we going answer your question without more info!? I'll give you a hint, we can't.

Everyone can post and say Koni/GC or AMR, but if we don't have a budget we can't suggest something.
If we don't have an idea what your looking for we can't suggest something.

You ever wonder why they have attitudes in the first place? Maybe because getting yelled at for being a "noob" gets old...

If you're new it can't have gotten old. Go to the suspension forum. There's at least 2 or 3 of these on the first page. This question get's asked at least once a week. THAT get's old.

Best for the money is definitely Koni/Ground Control @ $800 shipped. AMR @ $1300 is a really good deal too.

But you don't want "good for the money" you want cheap. There is a difference.

"Cheap" and "suspension" should not be used in the same sentence.

Often you can spend as little as you want for almost anything. This is an economic fact. Why would you do it on the components of your car that are most critical to your safety?

Never mind, Darwinism is a good thing. Ignore that whole statement.

Maybe it`s not my place to say but, when people open threads about this or anything else, that has almost every possible answer, it does get a little old. I mean, c`mon bro, read trough the threads before opening another thread about something that you know has been answered a million and a half times.
