I'm looking to install a new suspension next spring. My car is used on the street but not very much. Maybe 2-3 times per month depending on weather. I go to 2-3 open track events a year and that is what I want the suspension geared towards.

Does anybody have suggestions?

Anything coil over. A bit on the expensive side, but SO worth it in the end. :bigok:

Vosko,

Ohlins are cheaper then that, just as long as you dont want Curcuit only suspension.



ME personally, I would like a set of BUDDY CLUB. They ride nice, 13 way adjustable and at a good price...



How about this, if anyone is telling you its over $3800 for Stree/Curcuit suspension thats made in Japan, you let me know because they are FULL OF POOP!hehe
