Daily driver/ streetable comfort
For the past few days, I've been reading almost every thread in this section... :gasp:
but in any case, Basically I want a daily driver car with a slightly lowered stance, as well as the comfort of being able go over potholes without seriously damaging the underside.
I came across 3 setups that I'm really interested in, but I don't have enough knowledge to actually decide:
1) Prodrive WorldRally Sport Bilstein/Eibach Kit- i heard these were a perfect strut/spring combo and they ride very smoothly over rough streets, meanwhile give alot of the benefits of better springs/struts e.g. less body roll, etc. etc....
2) Tein super street (damper kit) coilovers- big factor is the adjustability, now i'm just wondering exactly how much more comfortable this thing rides than the WR setup and how its benefits compare to it. Also, I'm a bit skeptical about if adjustability is really worth the extra money.
3) Tein Flex coilovers- Somewhere along the line, I read this rides really comfortable as well. Just wanted to throw it in the fray.
Basically, Jersey has fair highway roads, but the local roads just suck... potholes everywhere. so yeah, based on that any help is greatly appreciated...
this is for 01' rs

You forgot one.
Koni inserts with Eibach Pro-Kit or other progressive spring setup.
I'm in NYC and I have koni's with Whiteline springs and finally my girlfriend has stopped complaining. :banana: :banana: :banana:
The handling is so much better now too.
And you can't beat the price.
