    i may have a friend ditching a tien basic setup. They are a decent starter set but nothing super special.

    Would that be like the people that drive around with a $2k car with $2k in wheels on it? LoL my car is worth maybe 3k so why put 3k in suspension. lol.

    It’s not at all uncommon among the serious autocrosser’s in E STOCK, ST, STS, and STR (NB) classes, for the shocks to be worth more than the car. Not that it’s not crazy.

    lol i think for the average person ohlins xidas or afcos would do just fine

    Ohlins are far from average, price-wise. Almost as much $ as AST's.

    Suspension is second only to tires in making a car fast around a track/autox, so you definitely get what you pay for. I will be upgrading my coilovers to AST's eventually.

    It isn't how you drive your car, but how you stand next to it.
