that option is listed

:bloated: meant to say sportline. I was outof it i guess.

Neuspeed sports and tokico illuminas.

Koni Yellow and Skunk2 coils so i'm not voting cause i'm not listed.

got some kyb agx set on 2 in front and 4 in rear. and tein s tech springs. pretty nice ride. could be a little smoother though. i voted for eibach and kyb agx. i hear good things about eibach but i found tein springs for cheaper.

The ride will be smoother if you set the rear @ a lower level. #4 is not meant for comfort - while it also reduces the shocks life

On Gran Turismo, I set the rear shocks with less resistance than the fronts for a Honda Civic. I cranked down on the rears and that actually made me have less control in the sharp corners.

Of course, in real life, you will want to do something different.

Well it all depends on your body type (coupe, sedan or hatchback) and althought GT3 is pretty real life in many aspects, It's not totally correct. the Teins on my Civic (16-way dampening adjustment) my car seems to handle it's best with the rears 4 clicks STIFFER than the fronts, and this considering I have NO front swaybar, and a thick 22mm Integra Type-R rear swaybar and I still need stiffer biased dampening at the rear than the front. I also like my car feeling neutral where it can oversteer as easily as it'll understeer.

I have H&R Stage II and Tokico Illuminas. They ride very nice.

THe cup kit.LOt of project cars using them.

How do you like those? H&R is one company I haven't heard anything bad about.

H&R is great stuff - its German :bigthumb: People I know with the Cup kits, springs, coilovers are all 100% happy.

what about that Koni RSK matched suspension set? anyone have those?

I've heard alot about koni yellows...
Would you say this setup is still better? KYB AGX w/ Eibach prokit

Better than what, Koni RSK? I would say NO. Reason being they are made by the SAME company designed to function with each other.

I have heard a lot of bad things about KYB in general. I have heard that they blow pretty easily.Sry to offend anyone. I think Tokicos are a better product then KYB.

go to carreview.com they review aftermarket products and i second that KYB have a reputation for blowing several months after intallation

n00b question, which of those combos give the smoothest ride but stiff handling when needed?

Tein SS only cause its adjustable
for stiffness
smooth ride
and height

I'm riding the Tokico HPs and the Neuspeed Race springs. 100% happy with them.

i just bought eibach pro kit springs, eibach anti-roll kit (sways), and kyb gr2 shocks for my 97 teg. is this a good set up?? do i need a camber kit with the 1.3" drop?? are the sways as good as i've heard?? and would it be a good idea to get a master bushing set??

I personally would have went with at least KYB AGX's, but overall not a bad setup. The Pro Kit wont throw the camber drastically off were camber kits are a must. Lower it, have it aligned and if negative camber is a serious issue then get camber kits. You should be safe. Eibach sways are good but over-priced IMO.

Poly bushing kits can make a great improvement if your not worried about a harsh squeaky ride. The poly gets worse as the temp. drops. If you live were freezing is an issue I would not install them in a daily driver. Mugen rubber bushings are the way to go for a daily driver IMO.

I've got the Pro kit on GR-2's and works great for me...maybe some point down the road i will get AGX
