Ryan I loved your car. Did you have the Bilstein PSS's on them that you sold to Cory that are on my S2000 now? I'm trying to find the history on them

Josh with the silver hardtop Ap1 (navy guy from Texas) bought them new but wanted to go lower then they allowed so I picked them up from him. I didn't like how soft they were so I sold them to Corey. They were still very very new when they were put on your car and you know Corey barely drove anywhere. And the ITR is getting about 6k in body and paint work done so you will like it too!

I want a set of AST 4150s Why do the great coilovers have to be so damn expensive? Stupid S2000 tax.

Just looked them up. I've been a Koni Yellow fan forever but might have to try the AST's out next, lots of R&D behind them.

AST's are KILLER. Cars run ridiculously fast with them on. I've heard mediocre things about Koni's on S2000's which is why I'm not planning on getting them. I'll probably end up just getting some Swift Spec R springs for a while to tide me over.

KWV3s?

I had K Sports on my S and it rode amazing. I know they're frowned upon but I couldn't argue with the results I had been receiving.

What about KW V3's?

I cant put shit coilovers like K sports on a car, because I know what a good suspension is supposed to feel like. Riding "amazing" is one thing. Going fast while still riding amazing is why $5k coilovers still sell. Honda engineered the stock shocks really REALLY well, which is why I dont mind putting on springs that will lower the car but not raise the spring rates much over what a CR comes with.

KWV3s aren't shit though, and they're good on the track. I had K Sports because I daily drove my car and that was it, it never saw a track while under my possession. Now my next one will be a different story, that will have a nice suspension setup for tracking and daily driving...probably KWV3s or Fortune 500s
