FD Suspension Kits??

Im trying to find a good suspension set up but I am having trouble finding a kit for an FD all I can really find is for an FC... will the struts and springs be the same on an FC ? I dunno... Any websites with kits for an FD

I have the Ground Control coilover system on Koni adjustables. Overall, I really like the setup. I have them a bit on the rough side right now, but really haven't tried to adjust them much yet.

The springs are Eibach that come with the system and I chose 550 lb front and 400 lb rears.

There are many other true coilover systems out there as well.

The suspension is totally different between the fc and fd. So the parts are not interchangeable.

Fully adjustable suspension pays for itself in the end. Why not save up and get the fully adjustable's from A'pexi. I have the HKS which are just as good/same priced, and I'm glad that the money was spent for it.
