Default Ef/crx Suspension

Puttin the EF hatch back on the road again because im tired of paying over a 100 bones to fill up my Diesel F250 every 4 fuckin days. The suspension on mt HB blows (dropzone coilovers front/tein springs rear with stock old ass shocks). Want a much smoother ride. Was thinkin of goin with Tokico HP's and skunk2 or tein lowering springs via ebay. Any other cheaper, less bouncy suggestions? NOT PUTTING ON THE STOCK SPRINGS! If anyone has just the front springs pm me. Thanks, JT

i have tokico illumina's (whites) and skunk 2 coilovers on my crx and dont complain much. the shocks are 5-way adjustable dampening and the coilovers obviously control ride height. and you cant really beat the price for that combo.

Blue's are cheap and work well with the shortened stroke. Omni power is the new skunk 2 a la 2003 (when the product was at least decent). Skunk is just average run of the mill Chinese junk now. H&R is and has always been quality also.

Quality product though. Mine have 7 years on them. Never any issues.

I'm running Ractive coilovers with KYB agx struts and the car rides fine...prolly not near as well as the higher end stuff but it was a big difference from using stock struts with the coilovers. Car handles much better in turns without the horrible rebound the stock units gave and the kybs are 4 way adjustable.

I have kyb gr2s and ground control coilovers , no bouncing ever. They are a little pricey but the ride is great.

I've got the yellow Neuspeed springs, just put Tokico Illumina's on it. I must say I'm a bit disappointed in the shocks. I expected it to be a lot better than the blown stock shocks that were on it before. But mine's for the track, so I guess I can't complain. The ride isn't too bad on the road.
