    Used to have:

    TEIN super street dampers with pillowball upper mounts
    INGALLS camber kit in the rear
    3G Eclipse OEM front strut tower bar
    D3 DESIGN chassis stiffening kit
    Addco rear sway bar
    225/40 18 Yokohama Parada spec 2 tires

    Now I have the same as above except:

    I just recently swapped out my Teins for H&R springs with KYB AGX shocks/struts all around. My rear Tein dampers were blown out and one of the front pillowball upper mounts appears to have some play in it. I have the AGX's set to 2 in the front and 4 in the rear. I'm actually very surprised at how much smoother the ride is and yet the handling is still really nice. I also have Sumitomo HTR Z III tires now. As much as I loved how well my Yokohama Parada spec 2's gripped the road, the Sumitomo's grip very well and at the same time have less road noise and are much more comfortable. Both tires are pretty good in the rain.

    With the H&R springs, I wish the front dropped just a slight bit more, but I can deal with the slight fender gap considering how comfortable the ride is now.

    My Setup

    2002 4cyl ES

    GR-2's
    Stock Springs
    3G Strut Bar
    Addco Sway Bar

    02-03 16' gtz wheels

    Its stock ride but the Sway Bar made a hell of a difference with control and body roll if your staying stock like me I highly recommend it

    i scrape on almost everything now. and im not talking about my front bumper. i have to take driveways and dips slower. hard to drive slow when my suspension allows me to fly around turns without needing to even think about putting my foot over the brake.
    how many inches is your drop?

    i just installed my tokico illuminas and tokico springs today.. 1.5 drop all around and the rear is set on 4 and the front on 4 as well. i am very happy with this setup as roads around here suck and i only bottomed out 2 times all day and it wasnt even that bad

    Alright, changed my alignment up to where it is so responsive and crisp its impossible to describe.

    On 245/40/17 Hankook Ventus RS-2's with 17 x 8.5 front and 17 x 8 rears
    JIC magic coilovers
    ST rear swaybar
    Full energy suspensions kit

    Front alignment -1.5* camber +.4* toe out, 2.7* caster right 2.4* caster left
    Rear alignment -.8* camber -.23* toe in, obviously 0* thrust angle

    The car is so nuetral its not even funny, turn in and initial bite are phenominal and the car just stays stuck through the entire corner.

    I got a 1995 galant s, max speed coilover, kyb gr2 struts, 16" ADR wheels, and 50 series tires.
    The ride isnt to bad. tight on corners, but bouncy due to blown struts in rear.
    I had a buddy with a 94 gs. he had eibach sport springs and koni struts. with 17" enkei wheels. That car rode like a dream. to bad koni struts are so damn expensive. I would deffinately recomend that setup.
