well, i would like to get coilovers in the future and i would get D2's or Ksport..but i've no experience with coilovers so my opinion is null and void.

i am biased because i ride on TEINs and havent tried anything else.

all i know is that the other ones are cheaper and do the same thing,

and that the k sports and omnis actually go lower than the teins.

green is a pretty color though

to ksports or D2s. I favor the ksports since they're the exact same as the d2 except that they're orange instead of purple and I like orange over purple anyday. I think purple's my least favorite color.

omni's ftw but i'm prolly biased because i have them. But since u said u don't mind them being stiff.... omni's sport ftw. They are cheaper than most and have a good rep. I have them, be.bopey has them... and a few others... so i think thats more than any 1 kind of coilovers people have on their CLs so far. I have tallied up about at least 2+ on omnis... and teins only 1.

I know I PM'ed him about that at least a week ago and he never replied. RUDE!! but he may not be offering it for the 1st gen but I don't know why he wouldn't or it may not be happening at all. I'd like to know though cause I'm not gonna wait in the dark forever.

I have the Tein SS-P. I love em on smooth surfaces, but when you get on bumpy roads your reminded that your not on stock struts anymore. I think thats every coilover system though.

how often will you be autoxing? For fun or are you trying to atleast be competitive? If it's the latter you won't be winning on d2's, ksport, tein ss or omnis i'll tell you that much....but i guess they'll give you a good ride
