A bunch of Suspension Components here.

Our Japanese shipment full of Cusco sway bars, Cusco strut bars, Rigid strut bars, and more is arriving next week. We want to know what you are going to do for suspension upgrades on your EVO. If you already have, what have you done.

Also want to take a poll on which coilovers you plan on doing if any. Trying to get a feel of what people are after. Please help out and we will help you out!

Are you going to Road Race, Auto X, Street Drive?
What brand of coilovers would you run? Tein, JIC, Zeal, GAB, Ralliart?

Thanks!

Unfortunately I haven't been able to acquire an EVO in south FLA yet b/c of the obscene markups. As soon as the prices do come down I will ceratinly be picking one up. As far as suspenions is concerned im planning to install the Tein coliovers with ralliart strutbars front and rear.

I really like the handling on the stock evo, very well balanced. but I wish it had a more aggressive stance. Since I drive mostly street, I'm interested in a suspension setup that retains or outperforms the factory components and is cost effective.....the Tein 'flex" coilovers looks like a good choice. Im just waiting for a coilover that is under $1200.

my 2cents

if you are going to fit strut bars, the front ones should be 3 point

DMS 40mm coil-overs.
Cusco for everything else.
I intend to do ALL my suspension first.
Then brakes, then wheels/tires.
After the joy of the stock engine power wears off, I will methodically attack treatments for it.

Why are peopel making the suspention and brakes the first mod, has anyone really tested the stock setup..... I took a easy 90 degree turn yesterday that most FWD cars spinout at 60mph.... I hit it at 60mph and man the car didn't even stress, the tires barely hum through the turn, i could have hit it at atleast 70 before i needed to worry.....
