springs or ground control kit?
hi I am just searching for idea about what should I get about the spring? should I just get lowering spring like tein S tech and eibach sportline or should I get ground control kit with coilover sleves and Eibach ERS spring. I know there is a hugh price difference but is the ground control kit that much better?
any recommandation for shocks selection are welcome

those coil sleeve things suck. go with a lowering spring and some shocks or just get a good set of coil overs (real ones)

Right, because sleeves aren't real coilovers, just like your factory setup isn't a real coilover...
Konis & Ground controls will be better then 95% of the "real" coilovers that are sold for these cars.
But, if you're not going to be racing the car, I'd go with a set of Konis and your choice of moderate lowering spring.
Skip the AGX, they don't last very long.

does anybody know the ideal spring rate for each brand of shocks. I know the stock spring is around 121lb/in and the tokico shock has a ideal range of 150-160lb/in. so tein is already too hard for tokico I think

true, if you consider stock springs aggressive.

AGX with stocks last also, but who'd want to go halfway?

sweet thanks for the info. I think I am going for GR2 plus s tech since they are pretty cheap on ebay. then I am going to save for sway bar or LSD

I dont' really care about lowering it. I am not going on track either. just that my shock is 14 years old and I decided to change it now. but all my friends give me different opinion and confuse me hella. and the main point is. I am hella broke but still want something better than stock
