Suggestions on suspension and brakes for del slo boosted.
I am about to drop my B16A back into my Del Sol in the coming weeks. It has the following done to the motor:
Wiseco Pistons
Eagles Rods
ACL Bearings
Supertech valvetrain including: Nitride coated valves, double valve springs, titanium retainers
CTR Cams
Blox Cam gears
Blox Intake Manifold
Blox Throttle Body
Custom built mini ram turbo manifold
Emusa turbo(to be swapped out next winter)
Custom made Up pipe
Custom made dump tube.
I feel I may be missing something but that is the just of it.
I am looking at around 375-400whp. I however am not sure which suspension set-up to go for. I will not be tracking this car very often, however I will some. I have been looking into the Skunk 2 ProS2 full coilover set-up and have liked what I have seen but I am open to suggestions or comments on that. I currently have H&R springs, oem struts, wicked tuning upper control arms, Full Race trac bar, Upper Strut bar.
As far as brakes, the Slo is an Si so I have disc all around but other than that nothing special, it is OEM spec rotors and ceramic pads. I am wanting to get new rotors and new pads, and know there is no such thing as NO brake dust but good stopping power. I want as low noise as possible with minimal brake dust and good stopping power. Any suggestions are appreciated!

I guessed you missed this too.
CLICK HERE all of you curious about suspension setups and their costs/reliability.

I did overlook that somehow, I can get H&R coilovers for $800 shipped, however not many people on these forums say anything about them. I love my springs I have, so I may get some koni yellow struts like 350r/400f and stick with these for a little bit until I save for the struts

better value, or a better suspension? Both are in the $800 range, I have seen problem with the eibach coils before, koni shocks are great, but these H&R on my car are by far the best ride I have seen/felt in a Honda before. I think I am just going to go with them when the time comes.

I am actually waiting on suggestions for brakes at this point. As I have made my mind on suspension. Thanks.
Edit: Also he said a better "value" I was seeing if he meant value price wise or a better overall suspension. Why come to a thread and not make a suggestion to anything and just flame?

why make a thread when you blatantly ignore suggestions you ask for?

that was also in the stickies at the top of this forum that you also overlooked

One person made a suggestion here, I gave the reason I do not like those coils, I am looking for other suggestions outside the suspension sticky there and opinions on anyone who has used the H&R coilovers. Also that thread you linked just says what I can swap my calipers and what not for. I am looking for info on hawk brakes and ebc and all aftermarket brakes pads. I have no interest at this time in just changing out my rotors/calipers from ones from another Honda.
