Hmm, not sure I would consider type s suspension an upgrade over the aspec if this is the case. Either way, welcome. Post some pics!

Get some nice wheels? I'd also get a CAI.


But, OP, you'll need to be a bit more descriptive. What do you mean by "fully custom"...? That's a broad range and rather vague.

the 08's never came with aspec suspension stock....
so, what I think the OP meant is that some one changed out the base suspension for the type-s suspension. this would be an upgrade.

however, the other gentleman, outl, knows that he's not getting an upgrade, because several members tried to convince him to go aspec, but he chose otherwise.

lol I did notice that outl did say that. I thought he was set on going aspec (although i did advise type s based on what he was looking for).

Agreed, base to type s in an upgrade. I guess that was a little ambiguous.

Thank you for respecting my decision I just come to realize that i was just more simply going for a replacement and would have went with my 6MT Base replacements if they weren't $200 more than the Type S. So why not get the better "replacements" for $200 less Again thank you all for your input.

OP. Congrats again on your TL!
