T.O. Rallisport has the S.tech's on his car....you could search for that post.
He noted that they were noticeably firmer than stock, but still comfortable.
On a side note, the H.Tech springs don't drop quite as much as the S.techs, but are made for a more comfortable ride.

Nah, I'm looking for firmer. The ride on the RA is too cushy for me....I used to have a RSX and I have friends that have a S2000 and a 350Z so I'm used to a nice firm ride. Besides, the stiffer springs should help w/ the oversteer.
I like the suspension set up on the car - except for the terminal understeer! I know they made it idiot proof, but I need the rear to come around just a little. The constant understeer at the limit is driving me nuts! Does anyone know if a rear sway bar should help a little? I really don't want a coil-over. Anyone install the RRM swaybar?
From what I've heard and from experience upgrading sway bars on other cars. Yes, it helps w/ the steering response as well as overall handling. In corners the car should stay much flater.
Do a search, you'll find that there are numerous people that have installed them and love them. Also, FYI...I've heard that the RRM sways are actually made by Progress.

If you get the coilovers from Tein you can change the dampning to make the ride more bearable. When I do suspension I am getting fully adjustable coilovers (height, compression, rebound, etc). That way I know I can get the ride I want.
Freddie, if you go to a larger/stiffer rsb you will get more oversteer. You could also look at a smaller fsb. I am not sure what the diameter is on either of the stock ones, but getting a larger rear bar will create closer to neutral steer. Just make sure you don't go too big or you will probably get into massive oversteer. Although you would probably need a pretty big rear bar to get the back to swing around really easily.
