Default Searched.....Ground Control coilovers or Neuspeed Springs?

I have both of these lying in my room, im gonna go with kyb AGX's...what would be better setup, agx's with GC or agx's with Neuspeed springs? I drive 140 miles a day, 70 miles back and forth, so i would like the ride to be stiff and not bouncy as much...thanks

i have eibach sportlines and love them therefore i suggest the ground controls...my friend had neuspeed race springs and it just hurt to go over a bump. I also have sportlines on my hatch (a 93) and went through two sets of tires in less than a year without a camber kit. but the coupe (97) hasn't had any camber problems for two years

ya put the GC on set the **** right were you like it, go to a good alignment shop have them set your toe to zero, and to the rest of the alginment and you will be good. i have probably said it 100 times on here YOU DON'T NEED A CAMPBER KIT, and i have heard of problems with ingalls, and skunk2.

Which Neuspeed springs do you have, what spring rates do the Ground Controls have, and what are you using the car for?

I usually recommend to go with Ground Control, since you can always call up Ground Control and buy another set of Eibach ERS springs with different rates if you don't like the rates you already have.

BTW, "bounciness" and "stiffness" are two different things, caused by two different factors.

Lets see, i have the Neuspeed sport springs (black), GC's are 200.64.67(front) and 180.64.44(rear) its just gonna be my daily driver....again, i drive like 140 miles a day.

I didnt know u can do that with GC, thats cool. Thanks on the info about the differences

well, if he has the GC lying in his room...

For someone not sure what they want, Gc's are a lot of money.
