My suspension
Ebay coilovers suck. I had it on my old car just cause i wanted it lower.
Just save the extra money and get ground control or something like that. You'll be much happier.

Save another $170. Don't skimp on suspension. Not coilovers, but an excellent setup with 1.75" drop.

I wouldn't go with them. If you just want a daily driver with some added performance go with some Eibach Pro-kit or sportlines. I'm running Koni sport shocks with prokits on my 99 coupe and I like the ride. I've done 2 track day with them and while they aren't the best performing option, I'd rather have a nice daily ride than an all out road race susp. at this point (also my 5 month old wouldn't like riding in a car with stiff springs
)
if you feel that you really "need" coilovers for some reason, save up and get GC's.

The ebay coilovers suck man, my friend had them on his car and they make oisesand the bodies got rusted and ****. there crap, you coul just get the shocks you want and some nice lowering springs
Are you plannin on buyin struts or just coilover and the sleeve? If you just want a drop get some H&R springs it will ride better than stock or just get gc or skunk2 coilovers that you can put on your stock struts until you can buy some nice ones.

I already have some KYB GR2 shocks, i just wanna know what is the best coilover for the value. I don't wwanna spend more than $200 on the coil overs. Are Tenzo-R good coil-overs? I basically want to know the best coilover for the money is.

why do you feel that you want/need C/Os tho?? Are you planning on having the car corner weighted when you do the alignment? Cheap suspension parts are a bad idea. They either ride like ***, handle poorly, break, or all of the above. If you have a budget let us know what it is and we can recommend the best springs or C/Os for that budget. I would only run GC's if I were getting C/O's.

You can't adjust lowering springs can you? Because when winter comes and i put on my stock tires, i'm gonna need coil-overs so i can raise it back up. I think i'll just go for some GC coil-overs. I found some at http://www.nolimitmotorsport.com for $285 shipped. It is the 92-00 Honda Civic/Del Sol (Limited Edition).

It seems to be the best deal i could find and it also seems that the "limited edition" is the only GC coil-overs that will fit my KYB GR2's.

is that a good deal? ok deal? very good deal?</TD></TR></TABLE>
$470 shipped on Illuminas w/ springs is a very good deal. Make sure your home when the UPS man
comes or else you'll be in a mess trying to pick them up.
