So what are my options suspension wise?

Okay, so from what I understand Ben from AJ-Racing says that suspension systems won't fit without minor modification to them. What exactly needs to be done? Additionally, are there are products out there that don't need to be modified? Thanks guys.

springs from the fine land of japan are probably the best way to go right now.

Ben at AJ-Racing is also the supplier of the in House product line of T1R. I am recieving the T1R B-Max Coilovers for the USDM GD3. The only difference the JDM and USDM GD3's have is the front Suspension. The JDM uses a 17mm bolts and the USDM uses 19mm ones. Basically saying that the USDM GD3's have the GD1/2 Front Suspensions...

Well the B-Max coilovers retail for about 1300 on other applications, so it should be around there.

Retail I believe is in that area. But these will be the only ones on the market in NA until JDM Companies change their applications...

Anyone make springs for USDM Fits that are progressive with .5"-1" drop? I'm looking for something that I can use with my stock dampers and not worry about camber issues. Do you think HFP will make suspension hopups for our cars?

So if our Fits have GD1 suspensions up front? When we order springs, what year/chassis code do we order springs for? GD1 or GD3?

I wanna get some TEINs..or perhaps some JIC.
