My setup is slightly different than that. I picked it up used with low mileage. I have 435F/375R springs.

I love it for as much as I've driven on it, but I haven't gotten to AutoX on them yet. From what I can tell you though, They ride bettter than most other cars I've driven and feel similar to my buddy's Ohlins setup.

DG-5 coilovers are supposed to be really good. JTP ran them on his FC. There alil pricey at 2300 but there supposed to be the best you can get for the FC.

like sex, yes it is that amazing. Well worth the 2600-3k price tag depending on where you purchase them.

i have the Zeal X and not the XS...so you can back them off for the highway and they arent bouncy and feel great. And crank them up for pdx's or auto-x's

super responsive, great feel....im in love
