I'm a new guy with the 2001 C2 coupe.
What should I watch out or care on my car?
I just did the short shifter, I really like it.
Next planning will be the Suspension
Wheel spacer.
But don't know what kind yet?
I thinking of H&R spacer 7mm front 15mm rear.
Suspension: ????
My driving will be most of the time is on the road, maybe once or twice for track (lapping).

Welcome to the board! In terms of suspension, it sounds like you're mostly going to be on the street so stick with PSS9s...

7mm and 15mm is pretty standard and a good way to go...

Is that ok to just install the h&r spring?
Also the h&r coilover compare to pss9 which one is better?

I wouldn't bother doing springs as it will compromise the ride... The H&R's are non adjustable so I would go with PSS9s...

daily996, from your first post, you sounded an awful lot like someone else here. you wouldn't happen to know who yellowbmr is, would you?

welcome to the board anyway. do watch out for the arling/kirby/kirling/arby fellas. they're one and the same.
