I was thinkin' of doing a JDM ITR suspension set up that would include shocks, springs, LCA's, 25mm front sway bar, and 23mm rear sway bar. Then for non Honda OEM stuff get a Benen front upper strut tower bar, a Spoon rear upper strut tower bar, and probably Spoon lower tie bars.
For the sway bars i will need bushings, endlinks, and a BSQ kit fo da rear sway bar; any thin else i would need for them?
Is there any thin else i would need to add to this set up?
Would this be a good set up?
Is there a different set up that i could get better results with and cost the same?
What are the best online stores to get the products that i need?

 

damn, you plan on dropping some cash. There's plenty of cheaper products that are just as good if not better then those parts and will give you the same or better results but they won't be the JDM deal you seem to be going after. it should be a good setup but only as good as you can drive the car and as good as you can set it up.
sorry not much help.

 

Dude, i don't know about all that JDM stuff. I think you might be happier going with Koni Yellow struts, mated with just about any quality spring of your choice.
Also, instead of the Spoon stuff, you might wanna look into Carbing. It's less expensive, just as "pimp" as Spoon in my opinion, and just as, if not better, than spoon.

 

If your going to spend that kind of money, and you want to have "ITR" suspension, just get the Apex N1 coilovers. Friend has them in his EG and they are really nice. Bunch of settings, and ya. Just get the ITR LCA's and sway bars. Type R sway bar !

 

the JDM ITR springs and shocks only cost $100 each from passwordjdm.com, if i buy koni yellows they will be like $500 for 4 of them plus sum springs.
i'm not doing a whole 5 lug set up, so qwhy do you guys say it will cost so much?

edit:actually i just looked @ passwordjdm's site and they're $150
JDM ITR shocks/springs $149.00/set plus shipping
so i might be lookin' into gettin' sum otha springs and shocks
what would u guys suggest for a $400-$500 spring and shock (for all 4) set up?

right, not that much money to buy them but they wil be in used condition

 

so does any 1 have suggestions for a $400-$500 spring and shock (for all 4) set up? What about sum Koni red shocks (non adjustable) wit Comptech springs?
also, do i need the endlinks for both the rear and front sway bars?

 

kyb-agx and used sportlines.

would any of tha suspension kits from modacar (for under $500 be any good)??
http://www.modacar.com/product...DASUP/
i don't need any adjustabilaty, i just need a set up that will give my good handling, i don't need to change the ride hight or dampning for any thin.

also if i got sum springs like the Eibach Sportline Springs i will need to buy a chamber kit (Alignment Kit) right? for tha front and the rear?
if i got springs like the comptech ones i wouldn't need to because they only lower the car like 1.25", right?

would a 1.8" drop be to low for driving in like 5cm to 8cm of snow?

like i said, man. Get a nice set of koni yellows. You can adjust their ride height and dampaning abiliby.

 

can any 1 suggest a springs and shocks that would cost $500 or less (total price fo 4 springs and 4 shocks)
i don't need adjustable springs or shocks

 

I have tokico blue and nuespeed sports and the ride is good. Set up only cost me 300 dollars. Bought the struts new and springs used.

 

kyb agx and hnr sport springs...the springs drop 1.75 in front and 1.5 in back..the agx are 4way or 8way adjustable depending on ur car...the setup was around 530 i think..both were brand new also

yea i've been researchin this stuff and i found that that set up would be the best fo da price, i can get the KYB AGX struts fo $330 shipped and then the H&R sport springs for like $150 to $200 shipped

but if i can get sum used JDM ITR springs and shocks (all 4) for $150 (i don't know if that price is fo 1 spring and 1 shock or all 4 springs and shocks, but i e-mailed passwordjdm.com) I will do that and save me a lot of $$$

would i need the rear and the front LCA's right (I would want them any ways because they're stronger then my stock ones right?)
any 1 know how much lower my car would be wit ITR springs and shocks?

 

bump...

i'm really considering getin the JDN ITR shocks and springs with the JDM ITR rear LCA's because i can get a good set of springs and struts and also get sum betta LCA's, all for a great price.

any 1 know how much lower my car will be wit JDM ITR springs and shocks (would it be like almost an inch)?

 

i got 15K JDM ITR Springs laying around if your interested. pm me

I don't know about used shocks. Buy 'em if you want, it's your money.

I would highly recommend koni yellows and ground control springs. Definately get your ITR rear LCA's, though. You don't need the front LCA's, stock will be fine.
