Default What suspension setup recommended for Chumpcar - 1999 Honda Accord 4 DR

We're running a 1999 Honda Accord in Chump Car with a JDM 2.3l VTEC.

Using Prelude VTEC brakes which work well.

Car sits high and is too sloppy in corners, I'd like to know what setups other people have used for road racing that are reasonably priced.

Thanks for feedback.

Koni/GC, or Illumina/GC come to mind, depending on what you want to do.

Is $900ish still considered "budget"?

The Koni's would be a good choice, unfortunately with Chumpcar we can't spend that much. Might be able to go $500 and not get penalized too much.

Tein SA's should be available for $500. Just over-spring them and crank the valve all the way up.

OR...buy used Koni/GC's.

OR...buy konis, buy the GC sleeves, and use extremely cheap summit racing springs.
