Mike K ran it on his "r". Said it understeered like a pig. the springs were way too soft.
I personally am done with coilovers.

I am total agreement with this statement. It looks better than stock set up but i didn't notice and improvement what so ever.

I have the World Sport Dampers on my R. I think they are great for the price. They ride similar to stock just with ride height adjustment. I am getting rid of them this summer because I want dampening adjustment for the road and track. Replacing them with Tein RA.

I am happy with the WS's its just i am going for something more agressive in means of spring rates. I am contemplating the type Flex from tein.

For $1000, I would get Konis with custom rate GC's. I don't think the WS is any better than stock besides ride height adjustability.

Re: Any one running Apexi WS Sus. on their R? (Tweety R)
Some coilover companies will allow you to change to a custom spring rate when asked while purchasing the system. The bad part about the Apexi WS suspension is that the dampening is non-adjustable.
Tokico Illuminas are great for the price. However, if you fork out another $100 you can get a much better shock such as Koni Yellows. FYI the koni yellow rear shocks for the itr or anyone using itr rear LCA the shocks must be taken off the car inorder to adjust the dampening.

I have the WS's and they ride alot softer then stock. I dont have confidence in them when hitting turns like I did with the stock ones but I love the cadi feel on long road trips...hahaha

Get the Tein SS theyre under $1000, and rather good.
Is Tein SS a replacement for the Tein HA's?
