Suggested struts to go with Comptech springs?

Toxis · 10-13-2006, 03:31 PM

I'm looking at getting a set of Comptech lowering springs (Type X

) but want to know what kind of springs I should be looking at. Does Koni, Tanabe, etc make some nice struts for the SI? My integra was stock but had the Eibach Sportline springs and even though it looked SECKSIE! I really want to keep the OEM (maybe a touch tighter) type feel. I'm really liking the non-bouncy suspension of the SI. Sure it's no Lexus but it might as well be compared to what I used to have. Thoughts?

Dunno if Koni's are out yet, but I'd go with the Reds if I were you....

...wait, I'm not you and I'm still going with the Reds....

I'm not positive, but there should only be the HFP struts out at the moment. Somebody has Koni's, but they were custom made.

UGH... so nothing's out yet other than full coilovers? ****!

From what I've heard, Koni yellows are supposed to be the shiznit, but I'm sure the reds would be great, too.

Koni told me it'd be early next year before they were released, but I honestly don't know if I believe them or not.

Just curious, but why wouldn't you want the yellows? I'd prefer the adjustability of the yellows over the reds
