What dmapers will you run? The RS*R race springs are too stiff for stock, or near stock (KYB GR2) dampers and they will blow them out. If you are looking for a drop I say just get the S Tech. If you want to get a little more technical, let us know how we can help, and go for the RS*R.

kgmm dr racing springs, 2.2 inch drop up front and 1.2 inches in the back. 6/5 for the rates. as mentioned previously tho, if u opt for the stiff springs, make sure u have the dampers to compensate for them

if you can find a set of HKS super sport springs, i highly reccomend them. been running them for about a year and arn't too hard on the street, and make the car stick like glue. rates are 5kg/mm front, 4kg/mm rear.

kgmm race springs would be a little harder, and probably handle a notch better... I would not get the Tein s-techs, I had them before the HKS springs and thought they were too soft, and the rear end looked too low compared to the front IMO.

RS*R's are nice...me like very much...have 3000 miles on my setup and still no problems with the AGX. I did turn them up all the way to 4/8 upon arriving in Florida, the roads are much smoother here.

I do feel the rear dampers are a little weak for the springs - I may upgrade to Koni rears in the near future.

where did you buy your RSR springs from and how much were they? I'm interested in swapping out the S-techs i have for some RSR race springs.

rsr race springs - phase2, $220+ shipping, im about to order them now.

[240DRFT]

i teins arent much of a drop...like a little over an inch? right. i dont think they'd be the best for autocrossing too

[Meantime]

Got mine new off of Ebay for $200 flat plus shipping...was like $20 to ship. That's the lowest price I could find at the time.

[zanetran]

can i get the actual site of phase2 where i can purchase rsr springs for 220

G thanks i wonder if turboimport is really legit . their prices seem so low compared to EVERYONE else.

[hannibal]

I dont know anything about that company. I'd go with SCO, simply cause they are a sponsor and have been for a while. Mention that youre a NICO member and they might be able to give you an even better price.

EDIT: I just looked at turboimport. THye say 'price to low to advertise' and when you click the 'buy it' link, it says $204 + shipping. All the more reason to go with SCO!

Got my Eibach sportlines for 215. It lowers about 2 in and handles a lot better than stock but I wouldn't recommend 'em for any serious autocross.
