Its sitting on vis coilovers and some blown stock struts. I want to have the car pretty low so what would be a good strut that wont break the bank?
Where do I buy them?
Any so cal IE shop recommendations? Thanks in advance

there's no such thing as a good strut that doesn't "break the bank"

If you want to be dumped get koni/gc with top hats. Or get a good full coilover system like AMR, tein super-street, or something else over $800.

There's no such thing as "cheap suspension" in terms of getting a good ride height and performance for your dollar. Any dumps ride on cheap shocks is going to net you the same results. Do it right the first time and you wont have to replace broken parts later.

Did you buy the coilovers yourself? If you want to keep them then I would recommend getting some Tokico shocks since they're not as expensive as Konis. I had some H&R race springs and Koni yellow shocks and it was amazing. I highly recommend the Koni Yellow (Sport) shocks, but I had to find them used to get a good deal on them, they're expensive. If you have no pride in those VIS coilovers, I would save up and get a new spring/shock combo or opt for a full coilover setup.

But in my opinion, for your VIS coilovers, I would get something less expensive, and less aggressive, like Tokico Blues. I think Koni has an Orange model that's similar also.

Koni Yellows and Tokico Illuminas are about the same price.

If they aren't the extra $50 is well worth it for the warranty and better shock.

I know Illuminas run about $400-500. And there's a dealer on H-T selling Koni Yellows for $450.

$850 for a koni/GC combo with your choice of rates.

Thanks for the input. Im new to the honda scene. My buddy says he has the hook up on tokico, but I was online reading and searching last night to figure out which one I need.
I think i read that the blues sucks in front with more than a 2" drop. Any truth to that?
And i thought I would be paying around 100-150 per strut?
Does the top hat net you more drop just by installing it?

^This is what you should do. Mine were a month old and still $400. MSRP is around $650 for a set, so if you can imagine how good of a deal that dealer is giving you.
