YOU SHOULD HAVE ASKED OMNI FIRST BEFORE YOU DID THAT.....
Does your car have A/C ? Cuz it depends how much weight is on the front...

Re: 1990 Civic Si (Rob.)
A/C Makes no difference on the front. I can stand on the front and it won't budge. I think its a lil lower in the front cause when I had set the preload I kept turning it till i couldnt anymore 
This time around I had a lil 1mm gap before the spring touched the top mount. Everything is good though. Also its ideal for the front to be softer
I'll try to get some pics up. When I have a day off

Re: 1990 Civic Si (Rob.)
hrm, just looking at the cars interior and stuff. it makes me regret getting a gay std instead of a si. si's look so much better, only thing that they weigh more, but eh.
also whats with the cover on the header, mine has that too, whats the point of it?

Re: 1990 Civic Si (Rob.)
You don't need to go any lower. The car looks good. I had mine low, and sooner or later it'll take a toll on any suspension you get. I had Tokico 5 ways, and had my coilovers almost all the way down, and blew the rear ones in two weeks, so now my car is back up, but not stock height, just enough. Low looks good, but blown struts suck!

Re: 1990 Civic Si (Bjorn20)
$500.00 dolllars later, that's what i wanna know! Where I'm at though, the roads are ****, so it'll take a toll on any car. My car was dumped though, that's why i raised it back up.

How can you even make an assumption like that from your computer like that from a mere picture? "pretty much at stock height" doesn't necessarily mean it'll handle close to stock. In fact it could handle very far in difference from stock and still retain a stock ride height.
