and FYI 96-98 civic mugen replica kit will not fit on a 99-00 civic because the drill holes are different unless you feel like drilling some more holes to fit it.

handeling is amazing, drop is agressive almot 2.5 seems like the front sits lower then the back, no picture, kybs in the front new stockers in the rear

H&R race springs are exactly the same as neuspeed race springs.
drop is 2.75 fr 2.5 rear

*note they will kill your stock shocks really fast.

in a months time i was able to compress my stock shocks by hand b4 upgrading to koni yellows.

The reason why... ~425fr and ~395r spring rates will own them.

Just a heads up

beware, I had h&r race springs with illuminas and they dropped the car to the floor. EVERY slight turn rubbed on the fender and broke off those clips that hold the liner to the fender. I used them for about 2 weeks and took them off. I put my old trusty GCs on and it was fine again.
