I have KYB AGX and RB vert springs and just save a few more dollars and get the full coil setup. Adjustability rules. Once you price everything out coils are the best bang for your buck.

Jason: once i get my car back sure.

I wonder how much a full coilover suspension costs? Isn't the average price about 16-1800+? If that's the case, then I saved "a lot" not just "some". I know that there's some really stupid pricing for the OEM replacements. Everything is different. The left and right front are different and the fronts and the rears are priced different also.

So let's say the average is 150$. 150x4 + I got my eibach springs from Jason so ... less than 4 digits bought and installed. Not bad.

I stopped by to see tonyttt's shop today, not bad at all. Pretty knowledgeable bunch of guys. Real nice group of rides they are working on. Tony, that's the biggest turbo I've ever seen on a car before. That FD should fly! Keep us posted on the progress.


Bukwild, you are thinking of Motorheads. They have since moved to Laurel, by the Mall on Cherry Lane.

yeah a coil over kit is $1200. I spent 1k on my setup and now wish I just got the damn coils so I could adjust my ride height to run larger tires in the front and back. with my setup now I doubt I can run my 17x10's with 275/40's without pulling the rear fender out. I see the coils in my future and I hate doing stuff twice

Slotted rotors in your application would be just for looks :P
