What coil overs?
yeah he means Autocross. Autocross has been kinda "branded" as Time Attack on the island.
The figure 8 on its side is the area we use, though due to increasing development we are limited to using the left square for the most part.

Those are some small courses! 
FWIW, I'm running a really old set of Ohlins PCV that was built per Paul Gerrard/Vishnu specs. They have been great after a few years of use, with the exception of the spherical bearings showing signs of deterioration, but that's an easy fix. I cant really say anymore than knowing I can get the Ohlins serviced by many places in the country. With the amount of products on the markets these days, serviceability is what buyers should really be looking into. I don't think its very easy to get a lower-end products serviced from what I've seen.

Just for clarity, I'm not trying to say any brands are bad, just merely saying its something to consider when making these purchases.

Hello all,
Searched around but didn't find what I wanted so I'm posting here. I have a JDM Evo VIII that I drive maybe 3 times for the week at most. I do Time Attack once a month with the car and I really need a set of coil overs. The car was originally bought with more drag strip time in mind, but our local track has been closed down and it doesn't look like anything is going to open up anytime soon.
I still would like a nice comfortable suspension on the street that I will be able to utilize in Time Attack and possibly Drag (whenever that would be). I originally wanted to get a set of D2's but not sure.. Any suggestions?

Other than the tein lowering springs I dont see a list of the rest of your suspension mods. I would recommend to invest in better springs, and a good set of tires. What tires are you running currently? How much experience do you have with autox/ Time Attack?
A good set of springs would be better then a cheap set of coilovers.

I have Toyo R1Rs. The car came with these lowering springs, they make noise and I get tons of body roll with um. I plan to get white line sway bars next, and front roll center adjustment kit from white line also.
These are what I bought:

For my daily driver the Megan Streets have been good and I have no regrets. 20K+ miles with ZERO problems. Are there better options?...YES, but definitely better than stock so don't let the suspension police tell you otherwise. BC..Megan...same mfg'r.
