New suspension. Finally.

Well the car is an 04 with about 150,000 mile on it. Rear suspension is blown and sagging like crazy. Makes terrible noise and the front isn't really any better. Plus auto x starts in two weeks. Here's a pic of what D2 sent me. One of their Rally Asphalt series. Hoping to install in a week or two. I'll keep posted with how it goes.

Please let us know how they perform compared to stock, on street and at the auto-x. I'm interested in buying coilovers too.

I remember a guy from pr that had the d2 coilovers . I haven't heard anything bad from them . Locally AWD Motorsports used D2s in several of their record breaking evos.

Sorry for late responses, been remodeling my new house all while having the flu. Retail is 1790, cheapest I have come across is 1400. D2 is sponsoring me some so therefore I didn't really have to pay that much. Less than what it would cost for complete factory replacement. And install is coming in next 2 weeks. I will for sure post up the install process and everything about them you can count on that.

Nice I've heard good things about the D2's in the 1/4 mile but not so much for autocross.

holy slammed! ride is probably ok with stock tire size, but if you go low profile, or high performance with stiff sidewalls, you'll feel it when you run over an ant.
