Question need help on suspension set up

so, i've been doing my research on suspension setups and they have come down to this. i've read that ground control coilovers paired up wiht some tokico blues are good. people say that these aren't very stiff, but i sorta like the stiff. my brother has a set of Tein ss coilover kit on his crx, and that thing rides like it's on freakin tracks man! it can get stiff and somepoints, but i like that sorta stiff. Do you think that a set of the skunk2 coilovers with some Koni shocks, either yellow or red would work best on my 92 hatch? i've read that the skunk2's are stiff, so i like that. tell me what you guys think. oh, and also, could someone tell me some prices on the koni shocks? thanks in advance.

phil

Re: need help on suspension set up

yeah but i would suggest just getting full coilovers for the same price. like the tein ss or the apexi ws. they might be a little more but hella worth it

I was thinking about the apexi ws as well. they run for about $800 don't they? i think the tein are a little bit pricy, but you get what you pay for. maybe if i save up my money instead of spending it i could get them.
