that is the setup I am looking at, does anyone have any experience with this setup, good or bad.

Any other recommendations on a setup I should get?? I want koni yellows, I do not want coil overs, and springs I am unsure of.


I could always just buy the konis, and then different springs, but what is a good brand?

koni and the sportlines are good. be aware though that koni arent direct replacements

yah, I was doing a whole bunch of reading through posts on here, and sportlines seem to be the best springs out there, and with suspension settings softer apparently ride almost like stock. Most of the pictures look like a good height on sportlines.

I have an old setup of struts that I have so I can install the koni's.

Sounds like you were reading my comments -- I just want to clarify that while I think my car feels "almost like stock" at the moment, everybody is bound to have their own opinion. It's possible given a different car on bumpier roads that you might not get the Sportlines to feel that soft without running out of suspension travel and hitting the bump stops. I was surprised myself, since everything I had read suggested the Sportlines were a very no-nonsense tight and harsh spring that would all but destroy comfort. I'm glad to find that with D-Specs and properly trimmed bump stops, this was not completely true.

that is the set I think I will get, about 1" in the front and about 1.25" in the rear. I want a little bit lower, increased handling, and abitity to soften up for the highway.

my last setup was KYB gr-2 and sprint springs (1.8" drop stock) likely settled to 2-2.25" so it was low, and I was bottoming out with those stupid dampners.. I think that setup will be much nicer and ride well.

I have been using Tein S-Techs on my DD and occasionally I go to autocross events as well. I couldn't be happier with my Yellows and Tein's. The roads are not perfect but I get a very nice ride when I soften them up, and When I turn them up ( stiffness ) all the way its on rails. The drop is 1.75 front and 1.5 rear. I have been on this setup for a little over a year now and have had no regrets.

Here is a pic of my car dropped.

that looks like a perfect ride height, with my last sprigns being so settled, it was super low, that looks better having it up.

Here are pics of my cav on the Koni Sport Springs (with AGX struts). Ride is amazing, and I have tried virtually everything including Koni Reds with Sportlines.
This will give you an idea of the drop.

I am going to purchase that Koni Sport kit, I like the way it looks.
