IM currently using BILSTEIN shocks in my 01 ITR with H&R springs

cornering: an initial sway but the car seems to lock and can take corners very fast

comfort: somewhat more bouncy than stock, not too bad tho

[....]

continous bumpy roads can become excessively annoying

great ride height tho, only .75 inch drop, looks great

The bilsteins and the springs were placed in at same time, so not really sure which of the two is good and bad.

overall conclusion: i like the way my ITR drives, but i like a slightly stiffer ride (less sway), a tad less bouncy (not bumpy...bouncy), and a little more stability at higher speeds. I think the new suspension even affected my braking, high speed braking seems more unstable now....not sure tho
im running Falken Azenis tires on stock wheels, car is 100% stock other than the mentioned suspension. I hope this helps somewhat. PM me for more

im looking into either apexi n1 coilovers or spoon n1 coilovers
