Cheapest way to improve handling?

[ALL MotoR Ep3]

Progress Rear (Anti)Sway and Tie Bar ~185
Progress Sport Springs ~160
Adjustable Endlinks (Corsport?) ~55
Energy Suspension K20 Motor Mount Inserts ~32
Ingalls Front/Rear Camber Kit ~180

Stock Shocks, Stock Wheels

Sticky tires on wheels - Yokohama S.Drive 205/55/15 ?

thats definitely the cheap way out.......

but if you wanna spend money get one piece coilovers,good tires,esmm inserts and strut bars(all of them) and a few other parts....

that's interesting.
"invest in good tires ....even cheaper..."

good tires .... investment .... cheaper

good... tires = investment + cheaper............



with this type of mentality, the all season tires that come on stock EP's are a good start for you guys. learn about how tires are made. and see how much more your pre-installed tires can give you.

1. getting good tires will only hide your mistakes
2. getting good tires won't last long
2a. if you say "well then get good alignment", then ur obviously not in for performance (broadly speaking).
3. it's a long term investment.. consider your income; u won't be running good tires forever. because you simply can't.

tires are the most expensive and fragile things in racing.

if ur gonna have all those mods, might as well run 215/50-55/15 or 225/50/16 on yokohamas.. just get the heat keep flowing.

CHEAPEST way:
1. learn physics
2. understand your car and accept your car the way it is
3. apply your physics and your driving

AND THEN:
1. get camber kit (but keep stock suspension)

AND THEN:
2. sway bar

dude whatever, i've seen so much of this suspension debate + how to make car handle better shit i'm tired of it lol
i know a whole bunch of people who buy those "progress" "mugen" "cusco" stuff and don't even know what it does to their car. They simply hear someone say "we need strut bars" and so now they are out there in the market getting strut bars cuz SOMEONE SAID they needed it AND NOT BECAUSE the person went out and experienced it himself.

when u buy a mod, the best way to save money is:
1. FIGURE OUT WHAT YOU WANT
2. FIND THE THING YOU NEED TO GET WHAT YOU WANT

AND DO NOT:
1. SEE THE THING FIRST
2. MAKE YOURSELF WANT
3. PUT ON CAR
4. and say "WOOOOOOAA I FEEL IT TOO!! YOU GUYS REALLY HAVE TO GET THIS!!!!"

^Yah, that!

From someone with stock suspension and a 22mm CTR rear sway on it's way, I LIKE THE WAY YOU'RE THINKING! Other than looking too tall, and a bit of body roll and understeer, I like my suspension! Now, if someone wants to let me drive their car to compare, I may be shown another way!

agreed with oldskoofame...i do think understanding cars limits and physics are also very important...i have seen guys on the course with stock EFs with just eibach springs and tokico shocks, and a set of decent tires that have been dancing around race-ready cars. its amazing how much a person's skill can do to a stock car. only if i knew that much

that's interesting.

I'm about to buy the '06 RSX-S rear sway from the link posted: http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org/...normal&count=2

Are stock endlinks fine with this or should I get new ones? Will my car need an alignment after the install?

[20CiviC02Si]

Like many have said. Tires!

[civictype_r04]

ctr rear sway ~90$ and its the best 90$ ive spent on my EP

Where did you get the Type R sway for $90 I need one.

Yr stock endlinks are fine, but you'll need two new bushings (see item #6 in the schematic). The installation will have no effect on your alignment.
