Tein coil overs. True adjustable coilovers and when you look at what your gonna spend to get drop springs and then aftermarket shocks your gonna get close to what the Teins cost but you cant beat the performance. the Teins i got a quote at 1100.00 from www.tornactive.com

just got the goldline springs installed on saturday. was gunna go with the neuspeed race springs for the longest time ever, than, at the last minute, i changed my mind. i dont regret it at all. bout a finger gap on the rear wheels and about a finger and a half on the front (stock wheels and tires: winter time). looks one hundred times better than my dads 02 vic. even my mom noticed the drop and she doesnt know the difference between tires and wheels. any way, rides great. pretty stiff but not unbearable. i also have the eibach front and rear camber kits which i highly recomend, after i had NTB realign my car and readjust the camber kit, it handled even better. i am planning on changing the stock struts in the summer, although as it is right now, i doubt i would even half too. better safe then sorry tho.

What parts you chose for suspension depend greatly on what you intend to do with your car, Like do you intend to race autoCross or track days? or do you want to simply improve some handleing qualities and have a nice smooth ride. because the parts for either of these are very different.

If you want to know about suspension stuff, go here.

The mods will probably move this thread there anyhow.

I have the Neuspeed sports I have had them on for a week and I hate the bouncy ride in town and down the free way. This week end I'm putting the stock springs back on. It might be better if you matched up a set of spring with some addjustable strut/shocks. Go to www.Koni.com and they have a set of adjustable that would be great with some sprins and they tell you where to get them and what is involved for the install. I believe that have a set kit as well.
