nice sig, i LOL'ed

best for what? you are asking a open ended question: ask 100 friend about their favorite chocolate brand and you'll get 100 useless answer.

one of the first thing you should do before even asking anything is do a 10 minute research, if you did a simple google/s2ki.com search you know eibach spring on CR damper is as pointless as a dvd rewinder, the rear rate is about the same with an inch lose in suspension travel=bumpstop riding horror.

what does he need the suspension for? most people drives after in the track with stock suspension, it's way more forgiving to novice driver(about 5-10 percent of all driver bring their car to the track regularity)

well he just wants a really good handling car. i dont think he wants to take it to the track as he wants to go big turbo.
So would u suggest the full cr suspension? i searched and it said it rose the cars?

on the street, CR would be one of the best set up for under a grand.

kwv3 also a very popular street(ar...with light duty track) set up.
