not really man, people just need to have an ultimate goal in mind before they actually go out and buy there suspension components, like for example

am i going to swap?
what engine am i going to swap?
will the suspension i am getting NOW have the proper spring rate LATER? (usually it doesnt)
what kind of dampers do i want?
how low do i want the car?

those are just a few questions you need to ask yourself before you buy it

i wish i could get tein. i woud get the type rs or even the N1 for some heavy duty road racing. but then again, my car is setup for the 1320. i have ground control coilovers with tokico adjustables. but am going to change the springs in the coilovers to skunk 2 drag launch springs. they are stiffer.
