Save the money until you can afford quality. Be patient. It takes time.

I have the money...I am just stuck with these egay coilovers with no buyers (go figure).
Those are both good set ups.
Skunk2 or Godspeed?

i swore by skunk2 back in high school, it was what to go with. like bobby said, function and form is awesome. but i would recommend saving your money and buying a nice setup to last a while than buy a cheap one and have to replace it soon.

I think I'm just gonna get the KYB's and use the ebay coilovers. I don't mind the ride. The struts will be good and new. I might as well use my coilovers rather than throw them away. It's an investment. I need to buy new struts anyway cuz one or two of them are blown i discovered today. I'm willing to get somethin bigger and better later. Right now my job is on the rocks, so a big investment isnt such a great idea.

20 degree air, cold tires and 370 rwhp = bad stuff. I just about stuffed the shitbox into the wall coming out of work tonight. I shifted into 2nd gear and touched the gas pedal right as I crested a small hit right outside of our gaurd shack. Next thing you know I'm sideways and sliding torwards my buddys truck. I had a choice of either my buddys truck or the cement railroad bridge wall. I chose the wall but luckily got her stopped before hitting it. Damn I gotta get some better driver skills.

ross, im running godsppeed coilovers on the wagon and have zero qualms about them. they're not a$ 1500 coilover setup but they get the job done. btw: godspeed has awesome customer service!!!!
function and form is popular with honda guys, skunk2 is a good bet, koni anything is gonna be awesome but pricey. i wouldnt use the crap u showed me the other night man. its cheap poorly fitting metal that looks like it'll crack or snap in a month- not good. like we all said: real cars, with good builds, dont happen overnight. it takes a long time dude. i spent almost three yrs building my prelude, and it wasnt done. bobby has been wrenching on the sol for over two yrs, david with his s2k has been about that long too. take your time and do it right the first time. dont take shortcuts. with something like your suspension- it could cost you your car or your life if something breaks at speed....

Yeah I'm sellin' those pieces of shit. Who new IA people were desperate for crap like I was? hahaha
$100 for $50 coilovers...suck on that economy!!!
Btw: had to get 4 new tires. not 2 used like i had expected.
$411 and change. :/

I get my tires from tread depot, super cheap but then you have to get them mounted and balanced elsewhere. Unless you can do it at work, $411 sounds like a pretty good deal out the door with M/B.
e-zone car looks really good in that Midori, swap wheels and it's nasty.

Those wing are going for about 1200. Why pay that much for something you likely won't use? Form follows function.

You can get them for quite a bit cheaper than that now days. Don't forget the cost for paint and installation If you don't do it yourself.
