    drop

    im looking for either a good strut and spring combo or a decent priced and decent set of coil overs for my wagon. something not to stiff and not to soft. i have TEIN SS on my CD5, but dont really want to spend that much for the wagon. also the wagon will be more of a daily instead of a track type car. any suggestions and links would be greatly appreciated.

    in advance MAHALO

      Strut and Spring combo is the cheapest way to go. Tein Basics arent bad. They are cheaper and they offer a nice ride. I have a set on my car. Its a little too soft for my taste but it absorbs bumps and crap pretty well.

          my TEIN SS on my 94 accord is great...nothing wrong i can say about them.

          as for how low...perhaps 2.5????

            At 2.5, you are going to need to drop some coin on shocks so you don't beat yourself to death.

              Ive heard alot of people say alot of good things about megan coilovers. My brother has a set on his s2000 and they are sweet. 32 way adjustable. its nice to be able to adjust dampening stiffness not only ride height. For everyday transit to work still have comfort. For the weekends stiff for the street battles.

                Tein H-Tech with Tokico HP. You will love it. It actually makes the ride more comfortable

                edit: also add some Suspension Technique Sway Bars and you are gold

                      Megan coilovers = roughly $900 off eBay. A Tokico HP setup would end up costing just over $400 shipped and would probably meet your needs just fine.

                        Well, coil overs are worthy, but for that much, might as well get teins.

                          Tein basics are 750. Omnipowers are 650 BUT they are a stiff ride and if comfort is what your looking at omnis are not the way to go. Megans are equivalent to the Apexi coil over unit ibecause Apexi made it.
