Default 5th gen prelude SH suspension

looking into some ground controls and shocks or teins dunno yet

Since GC has two different part numbers (one for konis one for all else) was wondering what shocks you guys are using and if you have some part numbers for them.

Was looking into some name brands such as KYB and Konis mainly.

Still havent decided if I want the GC for sure or if I should spend the extra money for some teins. Seems like the H-T bandwagon is on teins right now

Would most likely get the SS's if I went with teins.

save your money for tein SS or Flex, true coilovers

gc + koni is a good set up also if money is an issue, but for a few more bucks, i'd rather go with tein.

good decision . You can't go wrong with superior suspension like TEIN. I think it is worth saving the money to get some nice coilovers. However, I am probably going to go ground control with koni's on my 91 LS Integ.

well you may be in luck man, b/c the gc are around 300 and the konis are like 500-550

thats 800-850 for gc and konis, the SS's are 900 shipped from alot of places.

$50-100 more is nothing when you talk about what you are getting.
