in that case, Dreadangel, as mentioned i am leaning towards spring and shock combo. for the shock i plan on getting koni. now for the springs i have 3 options.
1- the spring shop makes the springs for me since they are a manufacturer. cost is 350 all round
2- i use eibach pro kit or the other eibach sport line roighly 450 dollars.
3- just came across the ground control coilover with eibach springs approx 480.

whay would you recomend out of the three alongside the koni shocks

eibach are good springs and ground control are well respected in the states (but so are roof racks so i donno it that means anything).
i would avoid having the springs "made" cause that sounds shifty as shit.

value for money id go with the BC coilovers they are cheap but i havent been able to fault em yet..

if you dont belive me
<---------- check my green blocks, "i have an exceptional understanding"

only thing is all together itll cost approx 1300 unfitted for the sping n shock combo

seems like the best solution period. what do you think dread angel ? if i was to go coilovers do you think it would be worth it to wait extra and pay 1800 for tein super street coilovers ?

the aus market tein super streets have a bit of a bad rep. some people have reported failures early on and it seems although it was only happening with the ones for the aussie market and those seemed softer all round then the jap equivalent.
dont get me wrong tein coils are good and have a lot going for them, it was just the ones associated with fulcrum that seemed problematic
BC or buddyclub in that price range n8

if you dont mind me asking, what suspension are you running yourself

im running buddyclub n+ coilovers

any benefit of them over bc ? for the price difference ?

well i paid 600 so i wouldnt know but buddyclub is jdm so extra internet points..
honestly i havent tried buddy clubs and BC on a dc5r but as an over all quality they both seem comparable. i know people run both and the rides in there cars are similar ( as far as you can compare the ride of s14, s15 preludes and mr2s)
in saying that i feel like the Buddyclubs are just a bit firmer which i like but i can understand many wouldnt

anyway off to work with dem peugeots...FML

hmmm madd 600 where did you manage to find them ? obv used right but wouldnt mind buying used myself. lol working with peugots you must be spewing.

yeah my buddy had en on his teg but hardly used really..
belive me after peugeot honda is easy cause they use logic instead of stupid
