Default What suspension setup should I get for my Teg?

I'm looking for a suspension setup on my 94 LS that has minimal bounce, extremely tight for corners and pretty durable as far as longevity. Could anyone please tell me what would be good choices as far as this is concerned? Thank you very much.

Koni yellows are a solid choice as far as shocks, but there are numerous choices as far as springs that will suit you. Ground Control makes their setups in whatever spring rate you want.

Default Tein SS Model, the self Adjustable

you'll love the the Tein SS type if you have $1200 roughly to play with, otherwise go with H&R and Koni Setup, its not to shab for the price, and the difference is noticable but both have there + & -...

If money isn't an issue, consider something crazy like Ohlins PCV.

I agree, JIC Magic has some very nice higher end coilovers. So does cusco. There are many companies out there that will suit your needs. There are higher end Teins that you might like. If you are willing to shell out some cash, go for Ohlins PCV.
You'll want to upgrade your rear sway as well, considering you have a '94 LS you may want to upgrade you front sway bar as well. There are many companies that make good sways as well, it all depends on how much you want to spend. For instance there is Comptech, Suspension Techniques, and eibach just to name a few. These have been covered numerous times, just take some time to search and find out what fits your needs best.

you mean the HA's or somthing else right? I've seen SS's go for under $900 right here on H-T.

personally i don't see how you could go wrong with koni and a custom ground control setup

However the Tein SS setup isn't nearly as track worthy as a well matched Koni/GC setup. And the Koni/GC setup should run for about the same price, if not cheaper.

Well, I didn't think I'd really get this much reply...thank you for your input. I'm lookin for a setup that'll be around $500-1000 and will ride sweet. I heard that the kyb agx is a pretty sweet shock/strut.

Good, yes. As good as the Koni's, in my opinion no.
