Will GP coilovers work for us? I like the adjustable ones they have, I know DP has some for us too, but I cannot imagine paying 1600 for suspension. Also wondering what the best performance struts for us are, and if there there are any choices other than those listed on willwrens site?

GP springs won't work for us.

Are you talking about rear struts or all around? Monroe is good, KYB is good, and I even have Gabriels on the front that I'm quite happy with.

The Monroe'* on my website are there just to illustrate a good ELC replacement, but those are probably also the best struts available for the rear of our cars with ELC. VERY responsive. Vast improvement.

Hmm, is there any way to completely get rid of the ELC? Or is this even advisable? I do not have the adjustable suspension (touring and sport buttons). I would be fine without ELC, and just tighter struts.

This is weird for me, as suspensions never interested me before, but after having a Spec-V with a crazy suspension setup (handles .91 G'* stock). I really need something tigher than the current setup on the bonnie. That and with the rear struts leaking, I know that sooner or later they will need replacement. I think nice struts and lowering springs would go a long way towards a better setup, although I could never hope for anything as tight as the Spec-V had.

OOC is the sway-bar kit that DP sells for our car any thicker than the one on my SSEI right now? And if so, by how much?

You're talking about CCR I assume. There'* a link on that strut page dealing with CCR. Delete CCR, but NOT ELC. Your *** will drag to hell and gone if you delete the ELC. Besides, the ELC comes in handy when you want to jack up the rear for the track.

I can think of a few reasons to kill CCR (when the system inevitably fails), but no good reasons to delete ELC.

The CCR I understand is the stock system that is almost impossible to find replacements for. My factory rear struts are leaking, I would like to replace them, and keeping the ELC is fine, so long as the struts handle better (and tigher). Anything I need to do except replace the struts to rid myself of CCR?

Instructions are there. Link near the bottom of the page. The Reflex ELC struts are FAR superior to stockers. You'll be most impressed.
