That's totally not true. I don't know anyone (competitive) that uses Teins, Mugen or the like full coilover suspensions. Take a look at STS and you will see all the top dogs use custom rate Ground Controls and Koni Yellows. My setup (350f/400r) is 100x better than my setup last year. And I have only took 2nd place twice this year (out of 25 autocrosses).
