why not do a search on honda-tech and see what they have to say about coilovers or springs. they may also have a special going on too.

what are the best coilovers i can get for under 1000? Ive been looking on clubrsx. i need to get rid of my wack ass skunk2. i was tempted to cop some tein flex with edfc. i found dude sellin g all of it for 1250.oo i was thinking about getting it. but i really dont wanna spend that much. i was looking around the 700 dollar range.

why coilovers? do some koni yellows and race springs...right around your price, shouldnt be any more than 750.

tein basics are around $700, if you really want coilovers...but you can only adjust ride height with them, not damper...but they are full coilovers...

omni's supposedly arent bad.
check out the tokico full coilovers they just came out with, i heard they were pretty good on h-t

mi4ceo · Im the CEO BITCH!!!!

cool. ill check em out. i think imma try to score some Tein. stay with my JDM theme. imma see if i can find some a little used. stay away from skunk2!!! they suck hella ass...well maybe if i didnt slam my **** on stock shocks i would be good..hahahahaha.

Slimsta Jimsta · Senior Member

haha slammed on stock ****s is a horrible idea. i'd go with the tein's honestly if you wanna keep a jdm theme. i drove craigs car right after he got the tein's on there, and it felt great from the driver's seat.... not as great as mine did though, he he he

mi4ceo · Im the CEO BITCH!!!!

what are you riding on fool

Slimsta Jimsta · Senior Member

tokico illumina struts(5 way adjustable)
and ground controls

i just liked the feel of my car more, but i also had strut bars, lighter weight, and no power steering

joriz DC5 · Member

if you wanna stay with your JDM theme then i guess tein ss-p or used tein flex is the way to go

i'm riding on Megans...i love the ride and handling i get out of them, but i wish they would stop making so much damn noise in the rear haha. i prolly gotta check em out and adjust the preload

koni + tein s-tech/eibach sportline/progress springs are great, megans are another solid option, function and form, k-sport also have some inexpensive offerings

im trying to find soemthing i can get dumped on..lol.

millenium · Senior Member

tein s-tech homie. look at how low my da was.

Slimsta Jimsta · Senior Member

tony, go with Koni Yellows and Ground Controls :)

mi4ceo · Im the CEO BITCH!!!!

i think imma cop some teins..**** that JDM niggas..

if you get the s-tech make sure you get a good set of shocks and a good alignment. if you dont make out a allotment to tirerack because your tires will not last.

coming from experience

mane, get you a good set of race springs, and some VERY good shocks, and call it a day. Don't get coilovers unless you get the full ****.

H&R make a very good race springs, and it will be hella dumped. But you will need a serious set of shocks/dampers or what ever the fuk they are...

Personnally, i would just get the Tein SS, although you will, still get some bouncing if you slam the car. One of my co-workers has them on his Ls and his **** rides good, but it does have a little hop to it over rough roads...

Get you some tokico's or Koni and some good race springs and call it a day.. ohhh, and an alignment

Slimsta Jimsta · Senior Member

GROUND CONTROLS please.

so many people on H-T run them things, especially the guys that track their car but they get custom rates, but for real though, GC's and Koni yellows are badass

mi4ceo · Im the CEO BITCH!!!!

imma look into the ground controls

Rabid Machina · Senior Member

dont waste your time with those ive heard so many bad reviews

Slimsta Jimsta · Senior Member

Lamont, what have you heard bad about them?

everyone on H-T that roadcourses/auto-x is all about the combo of GC's/Koni's

Rabid Machina · Senior Member

this guy had a good experience with his , but as you can see he had to miss match a bunch of stuff to make it work for him.

im just saying ideally for heavier car like rsx's and preludes it wouldnt be a good choice.

so unless you are auto x'ing or road racing i would say go with tien, kw, or h&r springs w/ a good set of shocks, that are adjustable to your driving needs.

so all in all jimmy it didnt come out the way i intended to say it, im just saying its a great setup for a civic or integra, but for heavier vehicles its not worth the hassle especially within that price range that he is looking for.

Slimsta Jimsta · Senior Member

ahh, i gotcha lamont

i've riden in an rsx with the GC's before, and it felt fine though, but i'd say go with the tein since you're not trying to get all crazy with it

aznskaterboy · Senior Member

get tein. i got tein ss coilovers on my civic. i lovem adjustable ride height and dampening! and their edfc compatible
