takzi - what are your impressions of the B14 Coilover? This is what I am most interested in. Love to hear what you think!

Its a great all rounder suspension. It may not be the lowest, but i do belevie its one that will handle the best around tracks or around any turns. Its abit bumpy at the beginning, but after the damper sag in abit, it is quite acceptable, even my wife said its not too bumpy...:-)

I guess if anyone here want to retain the day to day driving comfort of the Fit while getting a more aggressive look, i strongly recommend the B14. As u can see i am not aming for bigger wheels, just want to retain the 16 to gget the maximum outta the 1.5 engine.
