I have Tein CS installed about a couple of weeks ago. So far, I love it. I used to have stock Sport Package and CS provides a smoother ride. I have setting 7 ( 0 being the stiffest and 16 being the softest ). It is a touch firmer than stock but its not uncomfortable at all. I dropped it to about less than one finger gap in the rear and one finger gap in the front. I still have stock rims and they get tucked in a little in the rear. When I get my rims, I'll probably readjust the height. Overall, I'm very pleased with it.

HKS Hipermax here, pretty good so far. I also had the Sports suspensions... but after riding on these, I'm wondering why the designers didn't fix the suspension in the first place to ride as nicely as these.

What kind of Hipermax do you have? I checked the site and I didn't see 2IS on the application guide on all Hipermax series.

The Hipermax I'm using is the prototype one from HKS.. it should be released sometime later this year, if not by first quarter next year.

You can't really go wrong with HKS... though the price is a stickler if you don't have the cash for them.

it'll void pretty much anything suspension related. the rest of the warranty will remain intact though.
