What's up guys. I just got a DA. I haven't had a Honda since 06. What's the best place to find a good suspension setup? I'm gonna daily this car. I need best setup for the money and a good site to purchase from.

Thanks,

Chav

Koni/gc for a good budget bases setup. THMotorsports seems to have the best pricing on them.

I was leaning towards Koni/GC. That's probably what I'll go with. It's gonna be daily driven @ B serious.

Koni/GC is a great setup as long as you:

-Don't lower it more than about 1" or 1.25" (max.)
-Use 250LB REAR springs (max.)
-Are looking for *acceptable* ride quality compromise.

Thanks B. Right now it has some Tokiko whites and Omni Power coilovers. Rides like total ****. It's also slammed all the way. Any other setup you would suggest for a good daily setup? The shocks on there now are worn the hell out.

How low do you want the car to be as compared to stock?
