Im planning on getting H&R OE Springs and Tokico blue shocks, I was wondering if this would be a good setup? I want to maximize preformance and handling...
BTW do you notice the lowering at all with OE Springs? Thanks

Also here is another guy w/ H&R Oe's album: http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4291119627

I'm wondering about this setup too, does it perform well? Comfortability?

If your going with H&R check out their Cup Kit which includes matched springs & shocks. They can fe found @ www.tirerack.com -- true coilover set will give the best performance

Would the cup kit be better than getting h&r sports w/ koni yellows or kyb adj?

Rather than simply try to match a spring and shock together for the best performance, H&R's Cup Kits are engineered to work with each other from the beginning, and with a specific application in mind. This takes the guess work out of your spring/shock selection, and provides you with an application specific, precisely calibrated spring and shock set designed to deliver improved handling, uncompromised ride comfort and sleek styling in one precision engineered package.
FROM H&R ^^^^


For performance reasons, Yes. The only bad thing about the Cup is that all models are not fully adjustable. Some Cup Kits only offer Front adjustables so you will want to contact Tire Rack & ask them before purchasing, if adjustables is what you want.(judging by koni yellow & AGX - i think thats what you want) Everything H&R makes is good stuff because its German & usually designed for HIGH speed driving due to the lovely Autobahn!!!!!

Koni Yellows -- Tokico Illumina -- KYB AGX are all nice shocks/struts/dampers whatever you wanna call them.
