Default H&R Coilover Kit ! What Do You Know ?

I'm about to buy this kit for my S2k but couldn't decide yet because I don't know anyone who uses this kit. The price seems very low which makes me doubt the kit quality and all... If anyone have any experiences with this kit, please post...

Thanks in advance,


P.S. With the same price range ($1200), what other setup would you guys recommend ?

Coleone,

No experience of the H&R kit on the Honda, but I put a full H&R kit on a 1995 328i Coupe that I use as a track car. I did a lot of research before I bought it and heard a lot of good reports.

Definite improvement over the stock suspension (but then it was probably shagged after 80k miles). Kit fits perfectly to all mounting points so quality control seems very good.

Not quite as hard as I expected, but then it is adjustable and I haven't started playing yet.

Car feels much more planted, with much less body roll than before. Also helped the braking a lot.

Hope this helps.

Si
