Suspension Question
Suspension Question
I need to replace my front struts so I figure it's a good time to upgrade my whole suspension. I'm a bit confused about what to do though. I would like a spring and strut/shock combination, like coilovers, but I dont need them to be adjustable. I've looked at the H&R Cup Kit and liked it, but I only want around a 1" drop. Is there anything else like that kit that will replace the whole suspension, and I dont need it to be adjustable. I've searched but cannot find anything. Thanks for your help.

Spoon has a non adjustable kit, but it is way expensive. The HR cup kit is a myth and for all we know, will never come out, so don't hold your breath on that. Coils are a pain the *** to get the straight. Get a set of konis with a set of nice springs. Search around for different types of springs.
BTW how have you gotten so many points with only 40 posts?

Read the suspension FAQ before you buy anything, please.
HR doesn't have a coilover kit nor the cup kit yet. Tein (basic and ss), Hayame, B&G, KW, D2, JIC, Progress, are the coils out now. Please search and carefully review the pros and cons of each coilover before you buy them. they aren't a cheap investment. With Teins, you will need an upper mount bearing and/or upper mount.
It is also suggested you get a camber kit. SPC is the one of choice, but Ingalls, OBX and a few others make them.
