i was in a similar position and found that if u really want to be happy you need to drop some cash, when i got my s2000 i was going to go the tien/bc route. i have a set of jrz's single adjustables' on their way now yes i know its 2x what u want to spend, but i really spent alot of time looking around and if you spend some time in the racing forums they will tell u the same thing.

I got a set of the BuddyClub's used from another board member and they're fantastic. The ride height and spring rate adustments are separate so you don't loose shock travel when lowering the car. The ride is less harsh than stock at the full soft setting but are easy to firm up for spirited driving.

I was at the track on the weekend and noticed that the back end is much more planted under hard braking and the car runs much flatter through the slalom.

from me.

i know i have a lot of info already but i need some last opinions/suggestions:

-I need a coilover that is well-built and reliable
-the car will hardly be tracked/auto-x
-i want something stiffer than stock

My choices: Bilstein PSS9, TEIN FLEX (EDFC), TEIN RA


PLEASE HELP ME ONE LAST TIME AS I WILL BE PURCHASING WITHIN THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.
