I wasn't getting any views in Running Gear last time I posted this so I wanted to try here.



I have KYB AGX's now and Eibach pro-kits. This fall I was going to get Ground Control sleeves with Eibach ERS springs at 450 front, 325 rear and Tein or JIC upper front mounts/camber plates and Koni bumpstops = about $650.00 or get true coilover dampers like Tein RA's which I believe are around $1200?



What does everyone have or recommend on their FC with autocross/road course racing in mind? How much did they cost and where? I don't want to lose my AGX's but if real coilovers are the way to go, then I'll sell them.

I have a set of MazdaSpeed coilovers sitting in a box in my garage. They are a pretty blue color, but that's all I know right now. I'll give you some feedback once I get them installed.

I was looking at the K2RD..they seem like they'd be good for setting up my drag suspension...what shock are most of you guys w/ the K2RD running?

at the rate recommended for the fc's, the ground control kit is more setup for autox or road coarse, and combined with the agx's (set to full hard) is damn near a race car setup



if you don't plan to autox or road race, I'd probably recomend a little softer spring all around, nothing rediculous 50lbs lighter maybe. It'll help with your weight transfer for any drag, or street racing, and it will be a more comfortable ride



ps, agx's own

If you are to able to.....go with the Teins. Trust me you will not be disappointed. If budget concerns then go with the Eibach. I have the ground control with tokico 5 way. No complaints....they work good. I'll be upgrading to the Teins...you get a wider range of adjustments with the Teins. Just my .02

Tein prices



The Teins are tempting. The cheapest I saw the HA's for was $1080 at rxecret7.com but I'd rather not go there.. had a bad experience before with those guys.
