8", 2.5"id, 400# front. I'll let you do the rear

Pretty soft for as low as you like to go. You'll want something in the neighborhood of 500fr/400rr to keep it out of the towers.

Yeah there is an adapter ring to run the std sleeve on a Koni. I'm using them. You only need to buy one pair of springs though, just move the fronts to the back.

Check the classifieds in the rr/ax forum here, eBay, and circle track forums for cheap used springs, maybe Jay has some buds that have some laying around too.

Picked up a hatch back pocket assembly. Its amazing how something so small makes a big difference. Those holes in the other were really bugging me.

That will be nice!

Can I run the EX air pipe on my LS throttle body? I got a 12 hour road trip and don't want to listen to a PWJDM Whale *****.

My guess it will be tight if you can being the D series t-body's are 56mm and the LS is a 60mm. Might be time to locate a importer for a ITR elbow and box.

Caddi- What top hats are those?

^ ITR intake arm is about <$60 from online acura dealers. Pair it with a Comptech (CT Engineering) Icebox and enjoy the quietness

How's it going everyone. Been a member for a couple of years, but never really did anything but search and learn. I've mainly just put in time and maintenance to bring the civic up to snuff. It took me about a year to decide on wheels. I looked at about a million pics here on the site. Budget, look and specs took a while for me to agree on something. I'll be turning it over to my daughter in about a year. She had some say in what to pick out. It will be old, but should be a nice first car.

1999 LX. All stock as far as drivetrain and suspension. 151k on the miles.

Looks clean, but does it have Accord springs on it or something? It actually looks higher than stock....

I looked at those options but I got the EX ***** layin around. Thought I'd give it a shot and keeps it cheapness.

No it is stock civic springs. The wheels lifted it a bit. It had the factory 14" steels on it with 195/65/14 tires.

These are 16x7 wheels, 40 offset, with 205/50/16 tires. I didn't want to change any suspension as far as lowering the car. I don't want my daughter to have to worry about clearance issues. Plus we live out on rural roads and they are not always the greatest.

Ah the 50 series. That's what did it.

Stock was actually 185/65/14, which are a little shorter too.

EX elbow fit on the LS throttle body. Still haven't tide down all the vibratey bits in the front end but I assume with hasport mounts I'm just gonna have to deal with it. I can here the lifter ticks now as well. Got a local guy here has the OEM SI tube I'm gonna try and get tomorrow.
