I need some help in choosing a set of coilovers as i am suspension retarded.....lol. I am not a regular track goer but i would like to dabble in a bit of track work. the car is not a an everyday driver.......my current first choice is the Tanabe sustec pro - s OC II.

are these any good?
do they have what i need?
would any one have any suggestions as to which moderatly priced coilovers are resonably good?
i was also considering these omniman coilovers ....anyone heard anything about these?

ive heard the tenabe are awesome!
spring rate pretty good for performance yet very streetable. i personally am gonna head towards TEIN SS. u should consider them if u are gonna be putting them on a daily driver. however as i said my friend has sustec pro ss on his 4th gen lude and he thinks they are the shiznit!

can't go wrong with the tanabe. :) apparently nice for street, but at the hardest setting is pretty damn hard too .. so yeah . i think it would be a good choice
i have a set of Tanabe sustec pro's for my accord...they handle really well but didnt go low enough for my liking.
I read (clubsi forum) that the omnipower ones are pretty good too and can go very low :D

yer i have also read the write up on clumrsx.com.......they both seem to be equall in praise fromt he end user....
thats said i think i may just go for the omniman ones as alot of r&d goes into the majority of his products. mainyl for the fact of what poid said ... the just dont have the amount of hight adrustment i am looking for.... to be honest i really dont know what i am looking for outta a set of coilovers.... just handling and comfort...... what should i be looking for in a good set of coilovers in technical terms?

What about the buddyclub N+Spec Dampers?? They seem to be quite good. I'm going to be looking into these ones more very soon. Height Adjustable, damper adjustable etc.
Not a fan of tein.... :( Seen poor results on mates cars with them.
Does anyone know how the Buddyclub ones go??

they go pretty expensive lol.... i have not really looked into them as yet but i have heard very very good things about them.
yeah they go expensive hahahahhaha but in terms of height, yonas has told me 3.5" easy Y0. They are better than Tein SS I believe.
Attn Yonas, correct me if I'm wrong champ.
