Coil over and struts?
I'm looking on getting coil over's and strut's. Was going to get jic or tein,but out of price range for now. Found a good online for a skunk2 coilovers and koni sturts. I know that skunk2 integra has them on it and was wondering if that system would be any good for the turns and not just drag.If anyone has another set up they like let me know so I can check them out.

werd....and theres more to handling than shocks and springs. best to worry more about your driving skills and the tires.
some popular, aka good setups are:
ground control with KYB AGX
ground control with Koni yellows.

The question is, do you REALLY need adjustability? No sense in paying for coilovers or adjustable shocks if you have no need for them.
A decent set of springs matched with non adjustable shocks will do you just as good if you dont need to adjust them, which most people dont. I say get the spring thats suited to your driving style and a simple set of NA shocks.

Out here in southren cali there is alot of desert that is wide open for miles,came for harrisburg pa and been to pitt there are alot of places up in butler that is wide open also, just need to look for them.Back in 96 I got clocked by a statie doing 137 in a prelude when I was slowing down for a turn it took him 10 miles to catch up to me(that ticket sucked).
On the adjustable coil over thing ..... The roads suck in the cities out here and you need to be able to raise the car after the track or you bottom out every where Need to keep a low center of gravity on the track or the turn will kill your time.
