    Thanks a lot!

    They're both a tad stiffer and also help keep the rear rideheight level with the front in a car with full interior. The HA springs can sit a little low.

      Hello Jamo, what is better than H&R Cup Kit for S2 Coupe?

      Price difference between H&R Cup Kit or Koni + H&R is about 234 €

          KW V1 are a good value upgrade

          Doesn't the HnR kit use Bilstein shocks?

              Konis are nice because you can adjust them (off the car at lest) to suit springs you use and also driving style / roads etc. I put mine from 1.5 turns front / 1 rear to 0.5 all round when I fitted the HnRs and they're a lot stiffer now (you could feel the difference after adjustoing them off the car). The Billies are renowned as stiff, not sure if they're inverted but that's a nice option on the steering axle if you can get it as they're stiffer in bend.

                I have Koni Sport adjustable in yellow and H&R green springs under my RS2 from June 2009 and the car is stable and comfortable. For S2 Coupe H&R don't make only the springs, make only a complete kit of springs and shock absorbers, I have check on mine H&R catalog because I have a big garage and I'm an H&R, Koni and EBC authorized seller.

                    Hello re2500, H&R springs that you have, come from a complete H&R Cup Kit, is right?
                    Thanks!

                      I have decided for Koni, 86-2086 SPD2 on front and 86-2433 Sport on rear, now remain the problem of the springs, because H&R don't produce springs for S2 Coupe from what I have seen on catalogue and I have also speak with Italian distributor for Koni, H&R, EBC, ecc.

                        Get the ones off RE2500, they're the correct coupe HnRs.

                            Hello friend, finally I have decided for Koni and H&R springs from re2500
                            Now I have some question about farb, rarb and wishbones.
                            For a daily driver but also trackday car do you think that is better mount RS2 farb on front, standard S2 Coupe ABY rarb and standard forged wishbones or RS2 farb on front, whiteline or neuspeed rarb and complete powerflex setup?
                            Others good upgrade?
                            Thanks a lot!
                            Bye
