Ok...I was curious what are some good coilovers for FD's...I dont want the full thoughsand $$$ racing coilover setup. I use to have GroundControl on my civc, and I loved them...very nice. What are some good coilovers for FD's. Who carries them at the best price?

Two good coil-over systems with suitable stiffness for the street are the Tein HA and the JIC FLT-A2. ARD T2 (Rishie) is the forum vendor for both of these products. PM him for pricing. A good street price for the TEIN HA is $950 w/o pillowballs or $1300 w/pillowballs; a good price for the JIC FLT-A2 is about $1500 - they come with pillowball mounts.

 

He said he didn't want to pay that much. He's on the right track though. Over anything I suggest not skimping on the suspension in an FD as that is where it performs best at.

If you still don't want full coilovers I'd suggest looking into the M2 coilover sleeves or GC like you had on your Civic. However, I HIGHLY recommend that you get new struts whenever you get coilovers as it can cause premature wear on the factory struts.

Brandon, look at the pricing of those conversions. The M2 kit is $600. Combine that with $600 worth of Koni shocks and you are at $1200..... I think the conversion kits are meant more for someone who already has shocks they are happy with.

 

You're right rynberg. I still recommend not skimping in the suspension department though.

 

what bout apex n1's? thought they were pretty good too..

 

Just TRY running those spring rates on the street...ouch!
