Whats the best/cheapest way to lower a teggy?
i dont know if i should just go with springs, coil overs, or full shocks and struts.
i dont really care about taking corners.
i just want my car lowered and still have decent ride quality without jumping all over the place.


any suggestions?

 

Cheapest is doing it right the first time.

I have Koni Yellows, and Tein S-techs, and I love the ride/drop.
Very comfortable, yet still has some handling too it.

 

how much did that whole set up go for?

 

password:jdm has used jdm itr shocks and springs for like $200. I don't know how much it lowers the car maybe an inch or so. Nothing rides better than OEM I'd say. But if you can do tiens I'd go for it.

 

will itrs fit on my car?

 

they should. i havent seen any information saying it wouldnt. http://passwordjdm.com/JDM-DC-ITR-Fr...-P1171C91.aspx

 

hmm im not sure
does anyone know if ITR suspension will fit on my LS?
and how much it would lower it?

 

looks like you have to get the itr rear lower control arms for it to work

 

also it lowers you car just about 1 inch.

 

Itr suspension lowers about an inch.And the rear shock mount diffrently i beleive than regular integra shocks.So dont get them.I had Eibach Sportlines and they are great.Any type of spring like Neuspeed(green ones),Tein S-Tech,H&R(red ones),Espelir,Tanabe..Any of these you can buy slightly used between $75-$140..If your shocks are ok just put springs on.Please DO NOT cut your stock springs.You wanna go for a 1.5-1.8 drop.Any less and looks stock any more and your tires go to ****

 

the tien springs are said to made for the oem shocks. they are suppose to be one of the best.

 

guess im going with tein springs
thank you guys!:D

 

i would tell you to get ground controll coil overs bye eibach. there so damn smooth i really dont even notice my car is lowerd (when driving) rides so smooth and perfect and there alot cheaper then tein.

 

and i am slammed

 

Tein S.Tech's FTW!

Made for OEM shocks so they dont bottom out and blow your shocks... but i'd suggest you get new ones. Tokico HP or Koni STR.T shocks will do the job.

 

ebay coilovers would be the absolute cheapest. but you'll need shocks in about 2 months. i'd get a complete coilover. i have the ebay ones, buuut... i oughta get the real deal.

 

For $650 you can get a Complete Skunk2 S Pro suspension....It's really good not bouncey at all.

 

The cheapest way would be on ebay. You can get them for around $60 shipped.

 

I have Koni Yellows with Eibach Pro springs. It's decent...no complaints! It cost me about $325 for everything.

 

where did you get that steal?!

 

h&R sport springs - so far they lasted me 5 years with no prob.

 

Ground Controls are good but you need shocks like Koni's or Tokico.Other wise they dont ride very well.I have Ground Control/Koni Yellows with extended top hats in all four corners and it rides great..But its not cheap..So go with some kind of spring.

BE CAREFUL ON EBAY.My boy bought some "Tein" and he got some lowering springs painted green..They suck

 

i would not get coil overs they are horrible, and lowering springs can blow your stock struts so i would get aftermarket struts with springs

 

I wouldn't get struts at all, mainly because Integras do not have struts. They have shocks. Yes, they are completely different things.

This.

If you plan on driving the car for a long time, Koni Sport shocks are some of the best shocks you can buy, as they can handle pretty much anything you put on it, AND they will probably outlast most anything else. I've run a variety of setups on my Koni Sport shocks for 7 years and 170K miles now, and my shocks are holding up great. Most definitely worth the $500 I paid for them. Cheaper shocks probably would have been replaced twice by now, which would have been more expensive than $500.
