What's Your Suspension Setup?
 

Post your setup and let ppl know what you think of it.

What you like and what you don't like.

Have you had any other previous Setups before the one your currently running?? Throw a comparison in there as well.

This could potentially help a lot of members find a setup that could be suitable for them!

:wave:

i am all about lifetime warranty...

this is what i got - tokico hts with eibach sportlines and ingalls camber kits(F/R). the reason i like this set up is because of the dampening adjustability, i love the fact that you can adjust the setting from softest to hardest without taking off the suspension. and sportlines gives that more lower look to it.

before all this my setup were koni reds paired with sportlines...all in all this was too bouncy for me even though it was on medium stiffness setting. didn't bother having it adjusted as it was gonna cost me a lot to undo my suspension(mind you reds doesn't have the adjustability option externally...you have to adjust them internally)

installed some Function and Form 2 coilovers a month ago so far i am enjoying the ride no problems, good confortable feel. I myself though am seeking a real real stiff ride so i think i will be trying to get ahold of some custom stiff springs from function in form in the future.

they sure beat out my first setup being stock struts with tein s techs

as crazy as it may sound.....K-car's a little modified putting the tires on the pavement.

94 spirit front frame, control arms, struts, springs, heavy duty sway bar. that just in the front.

rear is still stock. front end is a little jacked up cause of it. but damn, handle well enough for a 21 year old car. in the process of find some tires for it now.

airbag suspension for me

I've got Tein HA's from an ITR and full urethane bushings. Handles great, but doesn't ride all that smooth. Especially on the roads around were i live. But, i've been driving it so long that I only really notice its bumpy when I ride in another car!

eibach springs/tokico blues

Tein S-Tech's on Kyb AGX's in the front and GR2's in the rear.
Switching over to Tein H-Tech's soon for winter and because I am having a clearance issue with my camber kit.
Other then that the ride is superb.

TEIN s-techs on Stock all around. Cant complain.

i've got the tokico advanced handling kit, which is composed of a tokico 1.8" drop spring and tokico illuminas. Compared to the cheapie coilover sleeves i had on stock shocks, it rides like a cadillac yet handles like a porsche. The kit included everything i needed to install into my 95 civic coupe.
The ride quality is near-stock and the handling increased a fair bit just from installing the springs/shocks. Illumina's are 5 way adjustable, but i don't really mess around with them much, i like it where it is.
I also have suspension techniques front and rear sway bars, which made the biggest difference of all of the suspension mods i've done to my car. I highly recommend getting a set of these sway bars. They came with the endlinks and all polyurethane bushings. The only downside of this was that i had to cut my exhaust and rotate it towards the passenger side tire a little so that it would clear the rear sway bar.
I also have front and rear upper-strut tower bars, which honestly didn't make too much difference on their own (the front bar was one of the first mods i ever did to my car and the rear bar was the last thing i did), but as a part of a "tuned" suspension, i feel they help contribute to the way my car handles.....which is amazing IMO, by the way.
I also really like how the illumina's come with a lifetime warranty, all i had to do is fill out the warranty card and send it to tokico, which i did right after installing them.
The tokico advanced handling kit and suspension techniques sway bars i would recommend to anyone.
I daily drive my car, year round and have NEVER had a problem in the winter, i've never got stuck in the snow. And i've been for 2 alignments (1 with 14" steelies and 1 with 17" rims) and both times i've been within spec, so i don't use a camber kit b/c there is no need.

my car used to have the cheap ebay coilovers when i first bought it, that was ohmy really bad. Then i changed to eibach sportlines with kyb gr2 shocks. The setup is alright but with the b series motor the car sits way too low, the springs are rated at 1.9 stock crx so i think the added weight slams it more. I DO have some camber issuses, the ride is not bad but i actually think the camber is killing my handling

next time i think ill be going with the prokits or something not as low

tien s techs w/ koni yellows

H&R race spring with tokico blue shocks omni power lower crontrol arms and crx rear sway bar in a civic sedan 91

H&R Sport Springs + Koni Yellows...lowered the car 1.5"...the Koni's are of course fully adjustable...I've only had them on for a few weeks and I love the set up...handling is significantly improved even on the softest setting...crank up the firmness and it only gets better...

Tokico blue shocks with Tein lowering springs.

SiR lower control arms, SiR front sway bar, ITR rear sway bar, Tanabe Sustec lower tie bars front and back, SiR front strut bar, Beaks subframe reinforecement kit, H&R full coilovers... think that's it. oh wait, Omnipower camber kit front and back (front adjustable upper control arms, rears are washers basically). rolling stock is gram light 57c, yoko parada spec 2, 205/45/16, kyokugen and muteki locking nuts.

update:

I just switched over to the H-Techs yesterday and wow, I'm impressed. Got a 2 finger gap all around, ride is incredible and doesn't have anywhere near as much body roll as I thought it would. :happy:
