Default Suspension Upgrades??? Tein..Apex...Ohlins...?????

I was wondering what everyone thought of the Tein Flex suspension for the s2000. I want to purchase a suspension system soon and want to buy the best for the money. I dont really want to spend more then 1500 - 2000 bucks. (this is a daily driver,not trach car for me) let me know what you guys think!

thanxs

I've had coilvers for my old cars, so maybe i can lend an opinion.

My Si had Apex'i N1 coilvers. Lightweight, ride height and shock height adjustable, shock dampening adjustability, and pillowball mounts. My only complaint is that they are noisy.

My Wrx had Tein HA coilvers. Ride height adjustablity, shock dampening adjustability, pillowball mounts w/camber adjustability, and it was just a real sturdy unit. My only complaints are that they are also noisy, and very heavy.

If I had to chose between Apex'i and Tein, i'd lean towards the Apex'i based on past experiences. Plus Tein is green, yuck. lol

I've heard the flex system was just as noisy as any coilver out there. If this is your daily driver, that might be something to consider. People always thought my cars were falling apart with the coilovers.
