im wanting to put a coil-over with a set of konis on my car but its going to run aruond a grand to do or i could buy the apexi setup for about the same price just wondering if anyone could help me or knows what other brands i should look into. i want a good quility setup for my car so i know it probably wont be cheap

i aready have a set of neuspeed race springs on my car but they just dont put the as low as i want it to be at but they do give a good ride

The Apex'is are nice, but you can't adjust the damping like you could with ground controls paired with koni yellows or a set of Teins. Both of those options are good, but the Teins will run you more money and are 16 way adjustable.

Look for a post I made about the Teins in the suspension forum where Accord Man gave a great reply about them.

Nope, new ones (HA discontinued), the SS, go from 1.4" - 3+" in the front, and .7" - 3ish" in the rear.
