    Default Ksport or skunk2 coilovers?

    i have a DA and im trying to decide which suspension to switch to.
    im on megan racing coilovers with tokico blues right now and it just isnt cutting it for me.
    so which one would you guys suggest?
    anyone ever had experience with a ksport suspension on a honda before on here?

    Where's the Omnipower option? Go with the Skunk2s if you're choosing between those two alone.

    I had Ksports on my '92 Acura Legend when I had it. They were good for the money and I never had issues with them.

    camber plates on dampers don't adjust the camber angle of your wheels if that's what you're thinking?

    Also, Ksport does not offer a damper camber adjustment plate on their stuff for the DA in your sig... you may be dissapointed when you open your box. A lot of companies sell their dampers with the picture of the "coolest" looking model of the coilover with a disclaimer on the page saying something about "picture may not represent actual product" or something like that.

    -

    S2 does offer a damper with adjustable rebound settings, they're just typically 300$ more than their baseline (street) dampers.

    The differences between Omni and Ksport are minimal at best, D2 would have been the best overall option for you since you were shopping on that side of the market. *sigh* oh well

    Hes right. Alot of older hondas dont have adjustable camber plate options. Your best bet woulda been D2's, or even F2 Autolife

    you guys do know that the baseline D2 and F2 coilovers are practically identical to K-sports, right? they're made in the same damn factory.

    ive driven a buddy's sol with k-sports somewhat extensively... loved em, especially for the price.

    yes, however D2 tech support seems to be a little bit better than the other guys. They also offer a re-valving service, i don't believe Ksport, Omni, or any other the others do.

    thanks a lot for all the info guys and yes i do realize that mine will not have the adjustable camber thanks for letting me too.
    and yeah i looked into d2's i liked them but they didnt seem to much different for the extra 100 bucks.
    the ksports should be here anyday, ill put some pics of it on the car hopefully ill be going pretty low.
