    MANY fail to see the point of springs+damper setups on DD, everyone says get coilovers but why? track performance on the public roads? 9/10 times in a year u wont even track it, so why bother with coilover, yes im sounding hypocritical now, cause i run coilovers, but too much miss information goin around, too much hearsay going around with no real evidence to prove that entry level coilovers like bc (not buddyclubs) are better than say Mugen spring+damper setup or even Koni+GC setup which plenty of guys use it in the states on DD and AutoX/track.

    Remember this setup is best for DD due to the nature of non linear spring rate which coilovers dont have! Linear spring rates are what cause spine shattering ride... think about it... if its a linear rate, theres not much give vs progressive spring rate, feel me?

    The good spring+damper setups like Mugen, NISMO, and ralliart are the bomb! with proper researched damper valve suited to the springs they will last ages and perform just as well vs cheap coilovers which tend to deteriorate on shotty roads like in vic and can be built poorly and most, if not all entry level coilovers built in taiwan lol.... (im not sure about tein SS though)

    For the price of BC coilovers, id take Mugen spring+shocks any day if i had dc5R if were talking about price for price.... though its non adjustable, its mugen LOL cmon jdm fan boys agree with me
