You can always replace it anyway...
my exact words.....

The springs aren't too bad but the body roll definately has to go (and it will next Tuesday when my sways get installed )

A set of Konis would probably help out also.

My last car was a Acura CLS with Comptech springs and sways and Koni shocks and I definately had more high speed confidence in the CL than the stock G.

I just wish that lowering the G wasn't such a pain because I think it would handle better if the center of gravity was lowered a bit.

I totally agree. Some people ask for way too much from one car. Personally I think it's on the stiffer side but of course I didn't previously drive around on a brick so I don't think it's on the soft side. I'm sure my a$$/bones/joints will get use to the suspension but if you want stiffer, that's what mods are for.

For me it was perfect.
C.
Exactly my opinion. Feels great on roadcourses and autox...and still comfy enough for daily driving.

Coming from a 95 Eclipse GSX w/ tokiko adjustable and eibach pro kit, I love the G's ride, it's stiff but not annoying. Now I’m just waiting for this…
