    That sounds like a alright price, but i think i heard that D2s springs rates where not correct for our cars, not sure. But that would not even matter if you are just a daily driver and not into serious competition.

    I cant compare them to Tein flex tho, but for what the Flex is , it is over priced.

    i say get d2 is way better.....and cheaper... and its more adjustable instead of paying a extra 500 for flex then having to spend extra money for the edfc compatible to adjust the ride height...

    EDFC does not adjust ride height, it adjusts dampening. The only system available to remote adjust ride height costs about as much as an EP...

    Then don't buy mass marked pre-built setups, particularly ones that utilize primitive dampers.

    Tein uses dampers that adjust bump & rebound with one knob... Bad
    D2 uses dampers that adjust bump & rebound with one knob... Also bad
    and Ksport uses dampers that adjust bump and rebound with one knob... Once again, bad.

    Will they make for decent street setups? Of course, being able to adjust bump valving will give you the maximum range of ride quality adjustment, its just sub-optimum for handling to have your bump & rebound adjustments done at the same time with one knob.

    the only pre-built systems that have dampers that only adjust rebound (what you want with a single adjustable damper) are KW V2's and Buddy Club RSD. Other wise you piece-meal it together and go with Konis.

    But then again... you don't really need an adjustable damper any ways, so you may as well pick up a set of bilstiens and some Ground controls (their compitition rates) and call it a day.

    then go with his other option
    bilstiens and ground controls would be in your range.
