I am thinking more like Tein


jk

Many people use Tein basics/SS/flex, tanabe etc. These are all coilover which cost ~900-1500. Some other coilovers are available such as H&R mugen etc.

If not interested in coilovers, get shocks/springs. For shocks, some just use stock and some Koni yellows. There are so many springs you can use.

Search and there should be tons of info in the forum.

Tanabe's.


Coilovers have been heavily discussed. Please use the search feature to find out info on them.

I live where roads are full of potholes. H&R serves me well. I don['t think it's harsh for the roads as much as other CO (from what I hear).

People say Tanabe's are comfy as well.

+1 isn't it only compatable with the flex?

well i'd just go with air runners and call it a day :rolleyes:

nah just pick up a set of teins and you should be good to go.

EDFC will only applicable on TEIN FLEX or CS I think.

BuddyClub N+/ H&R/ Tanabe will all give you a comfy ride. Skunk 2, depends on which model. The ADJUSTABLE Coilover (http://www.skunk2.com/Suspension/index2.php?prodId=aco) they have is NOT a real coilover, it requires aftermarket shock, so why not go for a full coilover or Spring+shock setup? You can use STOCK OEM shock as well, but if you are going to lower your ride, you will need to compress both the spring and stock shock, and will eventually cause PRE-MATURE failure.

If you really like Skunk2, go for their Pro-C (http://www.skunk2.com/Suspension/index2.php?prodId=fcoproc) or Pro-S (http://www.skunk2.com/Suspension/index2.php?prodId=fcopros) real coilover. Pro-C is a mono-tube design, and I believe it will handle better than the Pro-S, which is twin tube. But then the Pro-C will also be stiffer/harsher than the Pro-S Coilover.

FYI EDFC compatibility depends on the application. The Tein SS-P's on my RSX were compatible with the EDFC.

I say go with the Tein CS if you want a good drop and comfortability.. do a search there has been some recent talk about it..

I have Tanabe Sustec Pro for my 04 TSX. It's comfy and my car can really slice through turns.

last i knew the EDFC was only compatible with the flex....and 06tsx, not everyones ballin like you to get air runner.....i say it depends what type of person you are. If you're the type thats always gonna mess with your car and never satisfied, go with the flex. Its not as cheap as the SS, however, it can go lower. The ride quality isnt that bad either from what i've read
