NOW WITH 100% LESS STI!

Gonna bring his thread back instead of starting a new one with a similar question.


I found a good deal on a lightly used set of Cusco Zero 2E coilovers with E-Con. Look new, and they're a good deal compared to the close to $3k for the setup new.

However, the comparisons, reviews, etc I've read indicate that I might be better suited with KWs, like a simple set of V1s (found a good deal on those as well).

Since 99% of my miles , and time in the car is on the street or freeway, and anything I do has to be wife-approved, would the rates and dampning range of the Cuscos be too harsh? I want the car a little lower than current (RCE yellows) for looks alone. I want the ride a little more complain than the factory dampening of the stick 04 STi struts, which are clunking.

Just wondering I'd anyone can give an unbiased relation of the Cusco set up compared to the stock STi setup? Or maybe even the RCE Yellow/stock strut setup?
