Looks good my man. Like everyone said, drop it and then really enjoy it I have the Tein CS v2 on my GS and I have no complaints but the price has significantly gone up from when I bought them.
^ are they better than Tein, how is the comfort, looking something that will give me at least something close to OEM comfort. how much are HKS LS coils are going for?
HKS is the best of the best IMHO. im getting them for 650 although i think they msrp for over 2k and then im gonna send them to be rebuilt for 75 a shock and have fresh "new" coils. HKS are discontinued now for the gs series.

Thanks a lot buddy, I guess Tein CS v2 is the way to go since ppl who have those are really happy and there isn't any complaints, but as u mention it price has significantly gone up. Sakataj post a link where I looked and price is $1800 for Tein, so I'm trying to see what other brands are good or similar to Tein CS v2 that I can get for cheaper, and have same comfort. Hopefully I will find something.

wow Brian so that's a good price $650, I should have thought about drapping my car 2 yrs ago , because that time I could have got what i want it. I guess I have to do some research and find some good set up.

What would you recommend bro, is there any lowering threads, where I can find which coliovers brand is good, their comfort and etc.... I have been searching but don't get any result.

mine is currently being install at the moment.
alot of people have complained bout air....tire problems (burning through them) and all the other suspension issues u can/do have
^ wow man instead of 190 a shock that will cost 110 more than if you buy a new HKS, that's F*** up Brian hope you will find somewhere that they can rebuild them for cheaper buddy.
as far as riding on air don't think so as Brian posted there is a lot of ppl have complained about air, so I will try to find something that gives comfort and there isn't much complained about it, also looking something that has good affordable price. I was really excited when Sleeper post about Tein CS v2, but looking at the price of $1800 not willing to spend that much, will see how it goes, I Hope can find something....

I'm not a coilover expert but maybe try searching for Megan Racing or Stance and see reviews about them from other 2GS owners. I did a quick search and found Megan Racing @ ~$830 and the Stance @ ~$1220. That might be something more within your budget.

i would buy a new set of HKS but they discontinued them for the gs awhile ago and i dont know any shop that has some left over.noone can rebuild them BUT HKS,they dont sell the rebuild kits to ANYONE.
Also check out the Vendor Classifieds sub-forum here also. There are usually group buys for various parts. Right now, there are vendors selling BC Racing and Stance coilovers.

hopefully u can find something different or somewhere else where you are can rebuilt yours for cheaper, defiantly since they have discontinued they want sell rebuild kits to anyone cuz they want to make money from their own product, and they want to charge as much as they fill like that's the reason i think. if they sell to other person to do the the rebuild they can do cheaper and HKS want make any money. which is **** up...

Thanks a lot for info i will start searching for Megan or Stance, see reviews about them from other members. I know one of the GS owner around where I live has a nice set up too, I know the owner so I'm going to see him next couple of days and ask him cuz he has i think 1 finger gap too. for sure I will look what I can find for good price and has a good performance.
^ lol good one so if I don't drop it what will happen? 98% of comments and suggestions were drop it so for suree I'm going to drop it. I will keep updated when she gets new look.
