> [@Cliff](#): > > How much do you have to spend? um… depends on what? enough i guess. not looking to make my car badass setup for auto-x, just figured if i could reduce the body roll i’d give it a shot without looking stupid. i guess a smart question to fire back would be, how much would i have to spend? :lmao ---

Well I’ve been reading up on autox lately, and they best thing you can do for yourself is learn the car, drive the car, and go off a close to near stock set-up as a beginner. I posted in a diff. thread, but there was a stock integra running better times than a vette at one autox I watched. In all honesty, a basic suspension set-up with decent street tires will do you the best at this point in time. You can get yourself a set of KYB AGX’s & Ground Controls for cheap, or you can snag up a full of set coilovers for around 700’ish… Post up pics of your EK! ---
