Neuspeed race w/stock shocks

I have searched but couldn't find enough info on this question of mine. Ok this question is for people who have neuspeed race springs. I want to know how the ride is like when traveling around 80+mph. Is it very uncontrollable and bouncy or is ride ok? What about at other speeds? Oh and did u guys install a front camber kit for u guys with neuspeed race? Thank you.

I use to have Neuspeed Race springs on my old 02 SI. The rice was a little bit bumpier than stock. You have to watch out for big potholes. But at high speeds I didn't have a problem at all. I never had a camber kit with my springs. The front camber look fine, it was the back that was a little off.

You should get aftermarke shocks your stock ones will not last very long with aftermarket springs.

Camber kit is only neccessary when you drop 2 inches or lower. You can still add one if it is less then 2 inches but it is not necessary.

I would not get neuspeed, there are other options such as Tein or Spoon. You should get a set of matched struts with the springs too.

Well I just had em put on along with a camber kit, and I must say that the ride is not bad at all. I do cringe now at every pothole or bumps on the rode though, because now I have the mindset of avoiding everything. hehe. But ride is not bouncy, and I don't hear any noise or squeeks from the springs at all. Plus I get more heads turning my way now. haha.
