hey guys right now im in the market for getting a new suspension for my 99 ek but i been doin a lot of research before i jus go and blow bucks and hit a track and find out i have jus made a costly mistake.... i mean i have looked at everything so let me tell you what im trying to achieve

i want the car to sit right and look good// no brainer but its a DD and its in the process of becoming a part time track car/little drag

dont want to pay 2000 for the suspension so what you guys think

 

ground controls with koni yellows

<$1000 and you have yourself a kickass setup with custom rated springs if you so choose. on top of that throw in an itr 22mm rear sway bar and reinforcement kit for another $400-500.

 

any sugestions

 

I will agree with snoopy. Ground Control with custom rates and Koni yellows is the perfect setup for street/track. It is a cheaper and more superior setup than your entry level coilovers.

If you really have to go with full coilovers, stay away from D2, Ksport, Buddy Club, Megan Racing. They are all the same thing with different paint. Go with a serious setup like Tein FLEX.

 

:werd: for under a grand, go for the koni yellows/custom rate ground controls. just installed a set recently on my friends eg custom rate 400f/275r and the ride is awesome. i would of got this setup if i didnt have my tein flex which is an awesome setup as well and those range in the 1200-1500 depending where you can find them at. www.weaksauce.org will take care of ya.

 

it sounds like a lot of guys are saying that i should go with the koni and gc setup.... what spring rate would anyone recomend.... for dd and the ocainsional track setup... also does anyone know of a good site to get that setup or is 950 a good price// and for that price are they superior to tein ss or other coils

 

Off the shelf rates are probably just fine for what you are looking for. I got my complete setup for ~$830 at www.redshiftmotorsports.com.

 

can you offer the top hats" upper mount" and what is off the shelf spring rate??
because they offer them for 850 shipped w no hats... is that 830 shipped
::::91302:::::

 

You don't need the tophats unless you plan on dumping it. OTS rates are different for each car. They are the rates Eibach thought provided the best in both comfort and performance.

I ordered mine over a year ago, so the price has gone up. $850 shipped is a good price.

 

anyone ride the knoi yellows with the gound control...whats the kit ride like cause im becoming more interested in them
