Default Need help with suspension...

ok so i wanted to lower my 95 civic (ej2) but i didn't have alot of money. so until i could save up for a good suspension set up i thought i would just put some cheap ebay coilover sleeves on. I decided to go with bomz racing coilovers and new red blox lca's. It ended up looking really good but of course it was bouncy. But it handles AMAZING. Also i still have oem shocks. But my question is what is a good suspesion set up that still handles this good but isnt bouncy? Would it still be bouncy if i changed the shocks? should i go with coilovers or lowering springs? i Know one of my friends has a si with tokico illumina shocks and some kind on lowering springs and it handles and rides amazing. But a shop put on my coilovers so i have no idea what the height settings are, here pictures if that would help... thanks

if u want adjustability in ride height, slam it, or swap to diffrent spring rates. Coilovers are for you. if you just want a basic drop stick with springs.

for shocks go with koni yellows. to save money do the install yourself.
