Default Ordering Some Suspension for my SI! Feedback!

Well im ordering up some suspension for my car, it's pretty much bone stock and lowered on cut springs

Here is what im getting! Going with Skunk2 for the suspension, if anybody is using any of this give me some feedback on how you like it!

This is going on my 99 SI

I guess im pretty much ordering everything on the website for suspension besides the strut bar haha. Pretty good setup, my honda should handle like a champ after all of this.

i personally would upgrade from the skunk 2 shocks. go with koni's, agx's, or something else. ive heard bad things about those.

i personally run agx's on my ek and love them

edit: and id probably go with ground control coil overs instead of the skunk 2's. ive heard they're really bouncy

Pssst. They're springs. They're supposed to be bouncy.. The only reason a spring would feel bouncy is if it is used with dampers that can't properly damp the higher spring rate. So I'm taking "bouncy" to mean "stiff and used with crap/worn out dampers". Porky vehicles can make that a lot worse, too.

i prefer the koni and GC setup. but i know a lot of people that are satisfied with the same skunk2's.

Did you get to pick your own spring rates?
