Default Suspension on gsr

I just got my gsr a month ago, the factory supsension sucks. I previously had eibach sportline springs with KYB struts on a 88 honda civic hatchback. I loved the ride it was nice and stiff and felt every bump!! BUT I was thinking about doing skunk2 lowering springs w/ the 2.5 drop and KYB struts. OR should just get eibach? I want the ride to be stiff and feel every little thing on the road. Any suggestions or comments or your own experiences? Thanks

If you want to feel every bump and have your car handle like it's on rails, then I'd suggest a GC with Bilstein SP setup. Get custom rate springs from GC, something like F400 R500

GC and Skunk2 coilovers are both stiff. as for shocks, kyb agx are nice but from experience i've felt that tokico illuminas are stiffer and of course i've always heard great thing about Koni shocks

Replace the springs with some steel columns. That should do the job!

KYB are kool. What you have in mind is a decent setup. Good Luck!
