NEW parts!~!

So i got my Megan Race Dampers on and my EPS(electronic power steering) system.

my car feels a billion times better. my Tein SS dampers where blown, and the steering wheel shaked like a dirty *****. And i didn't have Power steering since my PS pump and PS rack were screwed up.

When i went to pick a Damper set, i opted to get something that was stiffer for a good price. The only decent damper out there was the Megan Race. these are 12k in front and 16k in the rear. I admit, they are pretty stiff, but that's how i wanted it.

The dampers are made for a RSX so i had to change out the rear lower controller arms and the tie rod ends on the steering rack.

The EPS system is nice as well. Every time i turned the wheel, it was a work out. Now its like cutting butter. I didn't get my PS idler pulley on because its in the mail.

i'll get pictures in a few days...

I'm thinking about switching my suspension out for a coilover set while I have my car apart. I wouldnt get the megan race myself cuz I dont want it that stiff but what would you suggest between tein ss and the regular megan coilovers?

i knew my SS's were blown because the shock did nothing on a bump, just vibrated hard and the shock was leakin oil

the SS's are in my basement... i might send them off to tien, fix em back to spec and sell em

I wouldnt get teins, they are over rated! The only good thing about em that is u can send em out to get em repaired but then again its a hassle to remove it and send it to em and not gettin it back till over a month later. Teins are expensive and megans perform just as well if not better..........

I thought the only thing that was needed for RSX suspension was swap out Tie rod ends and drill out the mounting holes to 16mm?
