ive heard nothing but good things. as"it rides like stock"..lol..but hey they look nice and im only paying $80, some koni yellows some time next year && im good to go..as for the unpredictability i guess it will only test my driving expertise..

yet life is unpredictable, 4 all i know, i could have the car parked and someone crashes into it..maybe having an S is more dangerous then a regular car, should i buy a SUV, but what if it flips should i drive?, maybe i should walk, but what if i get hit, maybe ill stay home all the time..lol..wow

but yea have you had experiance with sum1 loosing control because they changed they're springs?
Hey, it's your car to mod as you see fit.

Not sure where you heard about the rears going lower than the front, mine are perfectly fine.

Cutting a coil is the last thing you want to do.

I don't know why, but it almost seems to be that you're trying to cut corners and/or cheap out where/whenever possible with your car. Just remember you get what you pay for, and it oftens costs quite a bit more to fix a prior mistake. Better to do it the right the first time (even it costs a little more) and not have a headache later on down the road. Not trying to be a dick, it's just a random observation.

i am pretty cheap..but i like the drop on the skunk2's?? && i dont need coil-over right now, but so far i think ive done everything right, apexi exhaust, t1r tp, i guess my intake sucks but i wanted sumthing that used the stock air box.

OH! and my friend with an RSX has a Skunk2 70mm Throttle body, it seems like a perfect fit on my car! are there any real benefits to a larger throttle body?

not unless you are willing to have your intake manifold ported and polished, When I priced it out the intake mod was about 600.00


with what he said. just be carefull you get what you pay for
