Do you have the sport package? People in another thread were recommending that I change the struts at the same time... After doing a bit of research I was leaning towards the Koni FSD kit with Eibach springs... but after driving my car for a few days I think I am happy with the way it is for now ( I have the std suspension). I think I will save my money and get tint, CAI, and an oettinger rear spoiler first[8D]

Nam,

What's up with that??? I get a mod and you follow???

I did a lot of research and I went with the Koni C/O because it has a progressive spring rate, but still stiff enough to race well through the turns. Good pricing compared to the other as well. I looked into FSD/CupKits and it just makes more sense to go with the coilovers.

Cheers!

I was thinking about it for a while now, but when i went to purchase my APR downpipe yesturday, the guy quoted me on the KW coilovers and compared it against a few other brands, so i've been thinking about them (seriously) for a whole day now..... i think i'm just gonna give them a call and order them....... how much are the Koni's?

i was just thinking to myself............ do i REALLY need to take a right turn at 50mph?........ i don't think i need to.......

so.....

i'm gonna try to be a lil bit patient on my coilovers........ but maybe i'll go for the brakes first......... but Brembo's are a lil too much for me, i'm looking at the stoptechs first.

Damn, now that Konis are back-ordered for two months, I'm searching. Problem is that I want either the Tien or Konis, and neither are available for a while. SUCKS!

IMO, can't go wrong with Koni, be it the FSD or their c/o. [sm=smiley20.gif]

Still waiting for their c/o for the 3.2...
