Well, it's finally about time to change out the springs and dampers on the R. I purchased a 01 Type R about a month and a half ago. Guy before me had put some Neuspeed Race springs on, but kept the stock shocks. So I'm bouncin' all over the place! :o So I'm thinking of getting the Bilstein dampers and maybe the Comptech Sport or Eibach Sportline. This will hopefully raise the car up a bit, probably pretty close to stock ride height, which is what I want. I was thinking of full coilover system, but it's kind of expensive for me right now. Not to mention, the car is driven only on the street for now, no drag race or circuit racing. So does anyone have any opinions on those two spring choices? Comptech or Pro Kit? Pros and Cons to each application? Or any other recommendations? Thanks for any advice.
p.s. I'm new here so if you could take it easy on me I'd appreciate it. ;)

I think it will be a lot easier this way because it will be very difficult to adjust the new dampers so that they are as good as the stock ones!!

yes the ITR issues. If you are going to keep the springs then the Bilstein Sport mate very very well, or the koni yellows.
But if you are going to stock height, just buy the stock shocks and springs they are excellent.
