I know the ride is good and what not but what about noise. Are they quiet or do you get a lot of creeking and sqeeking?

 

I have Tein SS (made for EM2 Civic) on my Si and
the ride is fine - no squeeking/creaking once
they were installed correctly (I installed them
wrong the first time).

 

yah you go over bumps feeling solid...

 

No noise on my Flex either.

 

No noise, just install them correctly

 

what was it that you installed incorrectly?

the Tein SS looks like the way to go. What benefits do these have compared to the Basic Dampers?

 

basic, usually doesn't come with pillowball mount options and is not 16 way adjustable

ss dampers, have pillowball mounts for specific vehicles and is 16 way ride height adjustable

D2 coilovers? anyone have them? quick reactions? /

 

The people on ClubRSX seem to like the D2 coil overs. Can't beat $850 for an adjustable damper set.

I didn't use one of the OEM pieces in the upper mount. Doh! Funny thing was that the initial install seemed to work fine for about 2 months...then the springs started spinning (b/c they weren't seated properly) and the car lowered itself in the front. I could probably sell that as an option - heh.

Either way, they are fine now.
