Update! 11/28
So I took a drive up to Ground Control to pick up my set.
Chose to go with Spring rates F500 and R450
Also, picked up a set of Ground Control Extended Top Hats only for the fronts.
So current suspension setup
Koni Yellow Shocks:
Ground Control Coilovers
- Fronts: 500
- Rears: 450
Ground Control Extended Top Hats for the fronts.
Ground Control Progressive bump stops in the front
Stock Top Hat in the rear
Energy Suspension linear bump stops in the rear
I forgot to take a picture of it when I picked it up and assembled it together outside the car. Here are a few.
Closer look at the Eibach springs, the numbers are in english terms
Knocked off the brake line collar from the stock shocks to put on the Konis
Close look at the extended top hats and the ITR strut bar. Barely any clearance.
I didn't take any pics of the rear either, its the same concept. Although for those who want to use stock top hats, when you get the Koni's it comes with the Top Hat pin that you should use in your stock top hat in order for it to fit the shocks.
So after about 150 miles of driving around with it still in the factory damping specs. I was very impressed. I did raise up my car just a tad bit because I was scraping at my school's parking structure but for the ride height it currently is. It is very smooth. There is bounce but its more controlled and not raise up or lift up as compared to stock shocks.
I will be playing / adjusting the shocks within the next few weeks to see what I like.

Impulse buy! my friend found the Comptech Subframe brace that I wanted and I went and picked it up today as well as installed it.
Comptech Subframe Brace and ITR 22mm Sway bar
Took a quick shot.
Also, my brother made up his mind to sell his s2000 so I went ahead and stole his optima yellow top battery. :thumbs up

Thanks! It feels good too! You really can feel noticeable difference through the turns. haha.
Um, Im not sure; maybe 9k? Idk though. haha.
Thanks!
Yeah, I'm like in love with them right now. My car is soo much smoother. Also, we just had this super wet rainy weather passing through these last couple of days and I actually noticed that I didn't hydroplaned as much as I use too. The overall car ride is so much nicer; even at my ride height. Haha, I didn't get to play around and fine tune the damping on the shocks yet so its still at its factory settings. Which is at or a just tad bit above the softest settings? I believe. I want to stiffen it up just a little more though then it'll be perfect for me.

Thanks Bro! Countless man hours on this baby.. Haha.
I don't think you want it. The front driver side wheel camber is off from the previous owner running it into an island so now it has positive camber. Alignment somewhat fix the issue but it's still noticeable. It's not that big a deal but its one of those things that bothers me haha. Seriously! we all should chip in and send a payment Lol.
Thanks bro!
