which would be a better set up:Tein HA CoiloversTein Basic damperKYB AGX struts, with Eibach pro kit springsKYB AGX struts, with Eibah sportline springs I use the car on the street for the most part, i have an sr20 getting ready to go in. But i do the ocassional 0-60 drag races with the local boys, and i like to drift around in empty parking lots, plus drag racing at moroso. So i guess i would be looking for overall performance. any input would be greatly appreciated.thanks, - kyle

I just put on RS*R Race Springs w/AGX on my car yesterday, I'll have a full write-up as soon as I get pix. The drop was just about perfect, and handling is way, way better. More later.

I personally like the TEIN FLEX Coilovers. Not to stiff for daily driving, but stiff enough for tight cornering and good launches.

It's all about what you're looking for.

For a balance if Comfort and performance, get the Flex.For performance, get the HA.If you want to conserve the budget, get the AGX and Eibach.

If you're never going to play around w/ the different settings, get Nismo S-tune. If you're into playing around and finding the best settings for you, coilovers are worth the money.

id say kyb/ tein springs, only because i personally wouldnt buy the eibachs again if i had it to do over.

but if you get the RSR race springs youre probably going to want konis to pair with them (thats just me)

Meantime...i'm counting on you ^_^. My friend has KYb w/ RSR onhis S14 and he loves it. Eibach is cool but they're more into the comfort level instead of pure performance. H&B is good but i guess they're pretty expensive.
