Okay I now this has been covered in multiple threads here and on other sites but i've heard good and bad... So now i'm hear asking the question once again.

I have a set on Neuspeed Springs on my 96 Civic Coupe... my stock shocks/struts are blown. At the end of March i plan on gettin some struts. Now i'm lookin at the DropZone GenII Shocks/Struts 96-97-98-99-00 Honda Civic off Ebay. Now yeah i know you get what you pay for but i was given the car with a blown engine, so i did a JDM 92-95 B16A SiR2 swap. So money is a little short and these i can afford.

Now from what i've learned is that these struts are decent if matched with some springs that have a low spring rate... and the Neuspeed springs fall into that category. Also DropZone is offering a lifetime warranty on the struts. What do you think of there quality if you already own a set of there struts (NOT SPRINGS OR COILOVERS)?

BTW, if u got pics of your car with this setup pleaz post so i can get an idea of what it's gonna look like.

they arent bad for cheap struts. just remember you get what you pay for.

If you are going cheap, go to Autozone or any local place w/ a Lifetime Warranty, and have them replaced when ever.

Yeah i could go to Autozone or Advanced Auto Parts but i've already looked there and ebay is cheaper. Autozone wants $59 each frnt and $57 each rear. I can get the DropZones cheaper off ebay. The Dropzones would only be for this summer.

I had a set and they blew in 6 months while lowered 2". They are piece of **** struts. Don't even waste your time installing them.

What springs where you runnin on the shocks? Cuz if the spring rate was to high then that might have been the cause.

H&R. They're still piece of **** struts though for not being able to handle H&R Sports.

if ur going cheap just get some kyb gr2's....I used to have some with lowering springs and they rode like a champ, on a friends hatch now and still riding like new...

trustdestruction

Those aren't made to be used with lowering springs, they're OEM replacements. Consider you and your friend pretty lucky.

i would still get autozone cuz they maybe more but ebay dont have lifetime warrenty...youll have to go through dropzone...too much of a hassle

Well i took wahat everyone had to say into consideration and my conclusion is... DropZone wont be gettin any of my money... i decide to go with Skunk2 sport shocks. thanks for ya'lls input.

mine blew in 8 months i bought the full dropzone coilover setup, hey OP how much u lowering it

Well the last owner put NEUSPEED Sport Springs on it. So if i continue to run those 1.75 (F) & 1.5 (R). My stock shocks was blown when i got the car. Once i put the Skunk2 shocks on, depending on how it feels, i might switch to Skunk2 springs. As far as DropZone is concerned that's a past thought. Skunk2 is my future.
