yeah i'm over there w/ clubrsx.. there's a lot of, how do i put it... "mixed" reviews about this product. as mentioned earlier about the spring rates.. that's not the only thing. once installed, most people experience the steering wheel cocking to the right. an alignment will NOT fix this... it's been tried multiple times.

with that in mind... the price you are expecting to pay is 650 right?... well the omnipower coilovers are out for the RSX and i would suggest looking into those. they're priced pretty much the same as the hayames and have reviewed pretty well so far. search honda-tech or clubrsx for reviews on the omnipower coilovers.. i believe the spring rates are pretty aggressive

or if you're looking into a full coilover setup, also consider the Progress Competition Coilovers. heard nothing but good things about those... i have that setup waiting to be installed as soon as my spc camber kit comes in the mail

or just be like me and just lower your car and reduce body roll by gaining like 100 lbs. you'll have a lower car in the front (puttin more weight on the front, adding traction to the wheels, since your front wheel drive, and its FREE) lol.

jk. i just felt like posting this because my friend decided to show me this thread and i dont care the least bit ^_^. might as will kill time by writing random ****.

YAY!!!!!!
