only thing i've heardabout the vogtland springs was that howell auto was selling em a while back and that was about it.

As far as experience with em, no idea.

I gave up and went to coilovers lol.

Vogtland springs are basically H&R from what I understand.

i dont have a problem spending 1000+ dollars on engine parts and turbo equipment but i think im the onli one that doesnt care much for suspension, i will admit coil overs do look very fancy lol im just not dedicated to them!

Well how do you plan to get the power to the ground then? You can easily gain/lose a second with a good/bad suspension setup. I wonder what Koni's and Eibachs will do to my times? Doubt I can do much of a comparison since I'll be changing the entire car except the shell lol.

I wonder what replacing my blown rear struts would do for my general drive in my NYG?

i def want a better suspension, i saw an rsx come into my shop todai when i inspected his car he has skunk springs on there with a 1.5 inch drop, he said it was a completely different world with those on there, and they were on stock struts,

i was thinkin KYB with goldlines possibly, def better handling, but not looking to the extreme with coils

IMO, using KYB's for any lowering springs, you're just going to be replacing struts once a year. as soon as i get a wad of cash i'm either going with coilovers or koni's.

sure you do.

there are a few choices. its just that the best choices happen to be the most expensive choices. but that's usually how it goes with everything, not just car suspensions.

goldlines aren't bad look wise, after they settle is almost over a 2inch drop and a rough ride, my friend had them on his neon and scrapped the bottem up alot so they are over kill on a body kitted neon
