Default new goodies :) and a question...

well i picked up some koni yellows for a very good price imo, they are all brand new with only one being on a car for 500 miles, i only paid 380 which i feel is a very good price

i also won a set of neuspeed race springs on ebay for 86 dollars shipped

how wil this setup go with each other?? and should i have the shocks set at full soft for daily driving?

oh and some pics


and one of my car there goin on

The neuspeed race springs are a bit too low for my taste, but they are quality. With the yellows you'll definitely notice the car being more stable in cornering.

It is good you are doing springs with shocks. I know a lot of people use stock struts with aftermarket springs, and depending on which springs they are, they can cause your stock shocks to prematurely wear out.

Also, do yourself a favor, and get a swaybar asap. The stocker is about the diameter of a freakin fuel line. Without one, you'll still definitely feel the car wanting to understeer. That will help out a great deal.

i would, but to be honest it snows alot here in the winter time, and rains alot in spring, also with the chance of the sway bar ruining my subframe id rather not take the chance

There are many people on this board that have been running upgraded sway bars on their tegs for years now w/o any problems. As long as the installation is correct with the right kit, you shouldn't have to worry about any problems. ITR rear sway bar is probably one of the best bang for the buck mods you can do to your teg. If I were you, I'd get the ITR rear sway with the BSQ kit and then install everything at once.

As far as the koni/neuspeed race setup, you'll notice a difference for sure in regrards to ride quality, handling and stability. for Koni Yellows.

Agreed I bought my car with a aftermarket swaybar and my is slammed and just recently i had my car jacked up and saw the sub-frame its alll gone. I mean the rust has eaten it away and the bolts are off. I think the previous owner not using a mounting kit to install the swaybar helped a great deal too.

take a look at these pics https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=773138 I am not too sure what I am going to do know

I used to have nuespeed race springs with tokico illumina adjustible shocks and it was an aggressive slam and a like stock ride. Very impressed with the way it handled.
