I have narrowed the new suspension down to the Blistien PSS9 or the OEM CR suspension. I want something slightly more aggressive than the 03 AP1 setup but not too insane for a DD use.

The blistien looks great because its adjustable and has a good rep for being slightly more aggressive, what do you dudes think? I have hookups and can get either set NIB to my door for $1200 so cost isnt a factor between the two. Along with the suspension I was thinking of adding the CT camber adjusters and polyurethane bushings to replace my worn and aging components.

As in the other thread, I hardly find a need for a DD to have $1k+ of suspension.

If your goal is to simply lower the car to kill the gap, just get some S.Tech springs and your ride will be twice as nice.

CR is actually pretty harsh for DD. my old coil overs were actually a more comfortable setup. You are welcome to drive my car anytime to get a feel for the CR.

Im still on my original OEM suspension which is now @ 160k miles, the blistiens had good reviews for not being too harsh and slightly better than oem ap1. The pricetag for the PSS9 is very reasonable compared to the costs of many many other setups which could go well over 2k! The PSS9 seem to have what Im looking for, could have it all rebalanced and refreshed just wana make sure they are reliable and reasonable. Since they are adjustable it would allow for rebalancing as well. I assume that I will stick with OEM height as well unless there is any performance benefits to lowering, and I would also need my fenders rolled because the 265s in the rear scrape when going over humps and dips.

Have you considered the buddy club racing spec setup? They're harsher than oem but very solid and adjustable. You can find them in the price range you are in too. I've heard great things about the bilsteins, but after much debate I ended up with the racing spec buddy club coilovers. Definently harsher than stock but way more stable and I can take turns at a descent speed without much fear of the rear of the car breaking away from me like the ap1 stock setup.

I agree with booster in that if you want a stock like setup just get lowering springs because any coilover worth paying for to upgrade will be a stiffer ride. Very noticeable and not to kind on your back at times.
