Hey everyone I am sort of new here..I was wondering what people's thoughts were on Neuspeed lowering springs for the EM2 civics..?

They sag in the rear after a short amount of time.

Coilovers all the way!

hondakid83

I keep searching around forums on different sites. I know that generally coilovers are bouncier, and that lowering springs are better for ride quality. Also, how bad is it to ride on stock struts after installing lowering springs...? Thanks for any help

^^ Done and done .. all i need now is the k-sport top hats and i will be set..

Hi everyone. My struts seem to be blown in the front so I'm just going to replace them all around. The car is a 2002 EX coupe that's basically all stock. I have 115,000 miles on it and I was wondering if I should be changing anything else while I'm doing the struts? I've seen a few things about bushings and some other stuff. Any insight would be great.

also, any recommendations for struts / springs? I'm not going to try extreme but a pretty close to stock ride is what I'm looking for.

EDIT: After doing more cruising around it looks like KYB GR-2's will be the struts I want. I'm also looking at the TEIN S-springs because I don't want to drop the car much at all.

I have a 2004 civic. I want use tokico D-specs but it doesnt seem like they make years 55mm strut (could be vice versa) will the previous 01-03 work.

actually, alot of off the shelf coilovers suck compared to a well pieced together suspension

Look in the FAQ thread.

Camber correction is more dependant on toe in. If toe is set correctly, you can run negative camber all you want.

Anybody looking at shocks that wants any sort of performance merit should read this informative piece.

To anyone that has progress sways... what are your thoughts on them?

Wheres the best place to get them? dezod, ebay, somewhere else??

Or some other sways you would recomend??

homelessEm2
