skunks if youre looking for a huge drop.

probably D2 if youre on a budget.

+1 for skunk2 or t1r

when i was cross shopping coilovers, my research found that a lot of these companies like killer bee and d2 that claim 32 way adjustable dampening actually only offer two settings, full soft or full stiff and nothing in between. i can't remember who posted it but i know i found it in the suspension forum, possibly in the suspension theory thread???

anyway, i rounded down my choices between skunk2, t1r, and enduratech because i knew the extra investment would be worth it. i ended up with skunk2 pro-c's because i was able to get an awesome deal on them and i couldn't be happier - firm ride but not back breaking.

the only other piece of advice i could give you is to do your own research. keep reading and learning about each product until you can form an opinion of your own. don't base your purchase on people's opinions about a product; the best example is here in your thread. people stand by their investment and tend to have an unintentional biased opinion - rvall004 and TOOL, skunk2 pro-c's FTMFW :p!

just don't cheap out on your coilovers, suspension and handling is the only good thing the Fit has going for it. you definitely don't want to eff that up

I agree..just do your own research and get whats the best for you, what type of performance u looking for and what is adequate with your budget....and thats tru everyone will always back up their own investments..:D:D

I ride D2's in my DD. I have also for other DD's. I like them and they haven't failed me in almost 2 years.

I can't speak for Killer Bee, but this WAS true w/ the old D2 coilovers. They've since redesigned the shocks and have true adjustibility. I've had an old set and a new set and I can tell a difference.

i really want the pro-c's b/c of the all the r&d that they did, and the drop is ridiculous...but realistically i might have to get the D2's b/c its cheaper and after riding in my bro's civic si, it was really nice and had really tight turns, i guess D2's are never going to get the respect like t1r and skunk2, but i'm not running a track car so D2's will have to suffice, unless i win that 96 mill mega lotto

pro-c's have a lot of race inspired design within its engineering of the dampening system

this video really inspired me, i was going to buy them, but as of now out of funds

Im just a little biased

neither haha

skunk2 pro c :)

i must've read old info, thanks for clearing that up :)

WIN

Never seen those endurotrac they look sweet and have a nice price range too that won't break the bank. Would love to get some T1R or Skunk's but trying to keep it under Stack, Thank you for showing me those enduro's leaning towards those right now.

In the end offcoruse the dicsion will be on me just wanna get people's feed back on what they have and why they got it.

Like me want a really good drop, I don not want to loose the handel of the fit cause it is top knotch, and a semi stiff right not to hard but a little hard, and under 1,000.00.

i would rock the skunks if I switched to full coilovers. Its the best known, plus they are outta south san francisco, and all of my skunk stuff I ever bought still works well. They put $$ and time into R&D

I forget who it was that said it but one of the first comments I ever read on this site was "Pay the extra money for what you really want" So just take it form there;)

out of all the coilovers mentioned, i'm pretty sure only enduratechs have actually been built with daily driveability in mind.

any suspension set up that makes the fit any bumpier or harsher than it already is doesn't make it sound MORE like a dd to me.

if i'm not mistaken, as good as the skunk 2's are, they are not exactly smoothers of the fits ride. in fact they have some the highest spring rates of any coilover on the market for the fit. they are quality products, but i don't think they are to everyones taste.


maybe i'm just getting old and i don't like a bumpy ride. or maybe i just don't think that a harsh bumpy ride is a prerequiste of handling.(i.e. see bmw.)

cusco can be made to fit with slight mods... not too sure how many people have ridden in them, but cusco is a tried and true suspension brand as well...

Look at HKS HKS USA HKS Hipermax III

Expensive but worth it.

Just wanna thank everyone for there suggestions and feedback thank you. Gonna take a little more time and look into some of the high choices and compare them befor I make the final choice.

skunk2 /thread

you could add tein basics to the list as well.

i just made a few minor adjustments to my pro-c's. even with the 800kg and 600kg springs the ride feels nearly stock minus the soggy rear. all i did was add a little more compression to the springs and lowered the valving to 2.. on contrary to popular belief, skunk2 pro-c's can be a very comfortable, daily driven, coilover option :)

Was talking with a couple of freinds of mine and I told them that I was going 195x45x15 and that I wanted the car with a really nice drop about a finger gap from top fender to top of tire, and they suggested T1R's that they would give me the most drop out of all the coilovers. What you think?
