Just start saving up until you get enough money for a decent coilovers suspension,you can adjust it however you like.

your best bet is to start saving up. decent coilovers wont run you much probably like 300 or 500 idk which but yeah.also cutting your springs is pretty dangerous if you dont know what your doing and can do a lot of damage if you mess up. just save up that extra 150 or more and invest in a coilover set up man, you'll be a lot happier

I think somewhere they have a mini coil spring compressor that you can install on your coil springs (struts maybe, I don't know a lot about honda suspension) and drive around like that, but that's ghetto and it'll take you longer to get what you want.

150 will you get either new ebay dropzone coilovers, or used ground control/skunk 2.
