eibach, H&R, or neuspeed springs with koni yellows..very nice spring/shock setup...kinda expensive though

Or you could go with a sleeve coilover and shock combo...like ground controls and koni yellows

Or you could go all out and get a full coilover system like tein, H&R, or progress.

i don't like coilovers vs. springs. coilovers are a little more bouncy. but i have to have them for the winters

my si had suspention techiniques when i bought it...i think it was like a 1.75" (it didn't quite seem a full 2"). anyway, they had a nice ride. i would take them back if i could...

i have a dx 4door to and i got a set of adjustable coil overs and i like them alot. because if im not happy with the hight i can change it no prob. in the winter when i go have fun in the snow it gets jacked up just incase i curb check in my steelies. and in the summer when my rims go on i slamm the hell out of it and i love the ride i get and the handeling. springs are good to they give you a good ride and better handling but when u go springs ur stuk with that height.

yO, GET Eibach Springs and Tockiko shocks, that will cost like 450 or so.... thats a pretty good price for both..... and if you want coilovers, get skunk2 or ground control..... but those are a lil spendy.......

I can get you G-Force coilovers for $168.00 + S&H. Kit includes all springs, sleeves, & all hardware. Decent springs, for a decent price.

That sounds like what I want...
