#2
Get some pics up lad you you have a rare beast there only a few in the country!
Ohlins ,Extc tein cusco etc just make sure you go for a decent brand. There are budget set ups available which are also good from the feedback I've seen on here like BC coilovers.

It completely depends on how much money you have (or want) to spend.
You could go for something like EXE-TC if you have the budget or Tein or BC if you're on a more modest budget.

Doesn't the Ra come with adjustable sti pink shocks and removing these could devalue it as the Ra is a spec c with the sti modded suspension including pink trailing arms, so if you do go for coilovers keep your original suspension if it's in good condition as a potential new owner may want them. But if you can afford it go for ast coilovers as per type 20 or 25. If on a budget fit bc coilovers as they do get good reports but think hard before modding as an Ra is rare and set up well from the factory.

Ohlins suspension are incredible, Ant here at Indigo has Ohlins on his Evo X, to say that his car out handles my car is an understatement, his car embarrasses my car and although I'm not Lewis Hamilton, I am a competent driver, I just can't touch his car in bends, in a straight line we're there or there abouts.

I don't think EXE-TC make the road variants of their coilovers anymore
RCM and others supply BC coilovers. Just had some fitted myself. Impressed so far!

Yes are available competition coilovers but with external reservoir,but at price from £4980.00
AST Sportline 1 are available at price £1492
AST Sportline 2 are available at price £1942
KW are for similar prices.
And if they're worth these money,i would say yes every penny.Suspension is most important thing on car and bad suspension will kill your ride etc.
