New Suspension?

Used to think that the suspension (Tein Coilovers) on my car were good enough for me. After a few months and track days, I now know that I would like something better. Can anyone give me the experiences with different suspension kits. Although I would really like a set, I cannot afford stuff like Ohlins.

I was gonna say "I know what Claudius will recommend", but you beat me to the punch.

There are a lot of very good suspensions available for the Evo, try contacting rally specialists and ask for:

- Proflex
- Rieger
- Koni
- K&W
- Dynamics
- etc...

There's also a company in Germany which uses "cheaper" Öhlins dampers which aren't adjustable and put them into Evos, forgot their name though.

Michael,
Thanks. Will check them out.

liquidlancer,
Don't think its a good idea. Shipping will cost too much.

Can anybody comment on HKS Hypermax Pro?
