The subject really says it all. I want my suspension to be the first thing I modify on my car and I want to do it right and that means getting some aftermarket shocks.

Only shocks that I know of that are out are Koni Yellows but they need modification to fit. Im waiting on KYBs or Tokicos.
I want to do it right also so Im waiting till more shocks come out, Im going with Progress springs btw.

I looked at the progress set up and it seems really nice, however I'm strongly considering Ground Control Coilovers. Would I still retain a nice everyday ride of I got this setup?

Ground Control have been know to ride a little harsh for everyday commutes, personally I would go with a nice spring/shock combo if your worried about ride harshness.

I went to Ground-Control's website thinking that maybe I could send them a quick E-mail...WRONG! The only way you can contact them is to call them(long distance for me). Kinda sucks. Oh well, I still have plenty of time to decide what I want to do. Due to the lack of funds and all.

Not trying to hijack the thread or anything, but I have a brand new set of GCs for sale if you are interested. I'll sell them cheaper than what I paid for them.

How was the ride on the GC's? Did you use the stock shocks with them? If not what shocks did you use?

I never installed them. They are brand new in the box and unopened. I am getting a different type of coilover.
How does $320 shipped sound? They are $339 + shipping from GC.

Alright so which company has the best set of springs out for our cars and what are the drops (inches) available. Ya i dont like SPRINT they suck BOuncy as hell. I like my stock springs right now caus eim not bouncy all over the place i want the lowered look with great handling. Also for all of you out there using SPRINT SPRINGS they tend to SAG after a few thousand miles ....and has anyone yet to release a shock kit for the ep's
Thanks:D
