I can't remember how much I paid exactly ...

Think I paid 1.3K for CR parts? And something like 1.8 for KWs. I could be completely off ...

Hartopguy.com would have CR parts prices. KWs ... they are readily available on a few websites I found on Google

your pretty much right on with the KW pricing. usually its 1,800 + tax for the KW's, unless you get a deal somewhere.

As their manual states...those are starting numbers. The intent is for the driver to tune them.

I completely agree. I just dont see how it could reduce handling capabilities.

If you appreciate the stance of the car with the CR suspension, I would definitely do it. Handles amazing and looks awesome. I would never lower my car beyond how the car sits so if you share that opinion, go with the cr suspension. I couldnt be happier with the way it handles over the base suspension.

Were you able to find the type S wing in silverstone ?

Painting that sucker is going to suck!

I don't think they have it in Silverstone (not 100% sure). I actually went through my mechanic to order, and he went through his friend in Japan. I just gave him the paint code when I ordered ...

Unfortuantely, it does. But then that's simply a function of the stiffness of the coilovers.

I noticed there a bit more noises, but not a whole lot. I'm generally a very picky person when it comes to rattle ...

Yeah, pricing is of course another issue. I've seen the pricing on imported Type-S brake pads, steep!

BTW, did you notice any difference in 'bump steer' with the CR suspension? I'm concerned why Honda didn't go with the same setup on their Type-S...

Wait, you mean TypeS uses different brake pads? Didn't realize that! What about the CR?

Haven't noticed bump steer myself with the CR setup ...
