Default 2003 Coilover Selections!!

Looking for those who have the following coilovers for their opinion: Cusco S-Comp, TEIN SS, JIC FLA-1, and the new Tokicos. For those of us that have daily drivers who want a comfortable ride and height adjustment, yet go to the track once or twice a month for AutoX. If anyone has these coilovers, please let me know what you think, and if you like them over other suspension you have tried. Thanks all, J'Dizzle:joshers:

don't get cusco s comp.. cuz it's ok for daily driving but on the track it's kinda soft. i drove my friends eg hatch with cusco type 02 coilovers with the pillow mounts... and that one was great on the tracks... but on daily driving... it's a tad bit bumpy.. but acceptable. as for me, i have the tanabe sustec pro ss... don't know why u didn't list it... but oh well.. this on is great for daily driving... tad bit bumpy.. but ok... on the tracks it's really tight turns and feels very solid. but i don't have a pillow mount, cuz it make noises. some shops in LA still sell this kit for like about 700 for a whole set. as for tien ss.. there are some peeps on here that is running that.. but i think they are over rated.. but just my 2 cents.

I didn't even think about the Tanabe's. I think I'm going for the TEIN Basics. I can get them for around $600. I hear they are a good daily driver and offer good track response. And no that is not my EK9. I can't remember where I got that pic. It's in Japan though. I downloaded it cause of the STEELIES!!! Thanks for the opinions. Keep em coming please! J'Dizzle
