Default Any Spring/Shock suggestions?

To those of you who read my previous post:
Checked the car....no spring spacers. Listen......the harshness of the ride over uneven pavement doesn't bother ME at all, it bothers my car!! Im just afraid that its gonna eventually loosen the whole interior until the car is full of shakes and rattles!! Im gonna look into a strut brace like some of you suggested. Also any comments about after market spring/shock setups? Are there any that maybe are more forgiving over slight uneven pavement and also lower the car a bit? Thanks!!

Tein Type NR/NA sounds like it would be ideal for the majority of us....Not sure if they make a specific application for the S2000, but I'm willing to be they do

Tein NA/NR is not available for the stook, only CS,RA and RS. U can also look at Zeal's B2, B6 and super function..

Mingster had a set of Zeal B6's in stock, not sure if he does anymore. Cost - around $2K for the setup, but keep in mind, they are 6 way adjustable - not exactly ideal for a daily driver who does not want to fine tune their suspension.

Otherwise, I'd go with a set of Bilstein SS's - which run under a grand for everything. Only adjustability is the ride height - everything else is pretty much 'auto-adjusting'.

You can also do a search on this topic- which is what I did for you- highlighting some of the threads.

I don't recommend TEIN. They have not impressed me with their other systems. It does come down to what you are looking for in ride quality and what you are willing to give up- a series of compromises, as you will...
