Default Suspension Reviews

I would like to ask the forum's advise for suspension. I have approx. $3000 to burn on suspension. What do you suggest?

Default 350 EVO

Hands down it's the 350 EVO complete setup, with Koni shocks, adjustable a arms, sway bars, and rear control arms. It just handels great for both autocross and track days.

Of course no more B Stock in Autocross bbut no one knows of the mods at track days and boy does it allow faster lap times.

What are you looking to do with the car? Do you want an emphasis in street, track, or autox?

with 3 grand wouldnt it be alot wiser to get a complete coilover setup? i mean for street and course, tein with edfc always seemed like a good compromise... if I had that money thats where my money would go for even though im just getting the basics..

I am going to do alot of autocross and probably 6 or 7 track weekends a year. I am not too concerned about drag racing. Here is what I am thinking... JIC or NISMO Coilovers, 350EVO suspension arms package, 350EVO sways. Race wheels/tires, JIC strut tower brace, 350EVO sways.

I have the HKS Hipermax II coilovers and it knocked 3 seconds of my lap times on a 1.6 mile road course. I have to say its a pretty good setup for a street car that sees a track occasionally.
