Default Need thoughts/advice on suspension setup..

Hey guys, ok, a real quick topic here, after a long, hard search, and all that, i think i have come to the conclusion on my suspension setup, gimme some thoughts on this please!
OK, I am going to go with tokico illuminas, and the H&R Sport Spring
will those be a good match?
secondly, i need some thoughts on the ride height, ok, check it out, http://www.hrsprings.com/scrip...D=158 thats a civic with the sport springs, now, thats a 1.8/1.6 drop, on 17" wheels, which i have as well, but i have a 93 coupe.. should the height be pretty much the same?? i dunno changes made in year models, etc.. but that is the height im looking for..soo, let me know your thoughts! thanks alot for the help everyone!! hope it wasnt too confusing.. haha

That's a broad question. It really depends on your application (street, drag, road course, etc.). The Tokico's are nice but a little pricey. Have you looked into "KYB AGX"? A buddy of mine just installed a set on his 94 Integra 4dr and it rides smooth. He only paid $310 including s/h. If you want to opt for springs, try PROGRESS. I had a set on my old 98 Prelude and they ride like stock. The thing I dislike about the H&R's is that you have to compress their springs when you are installing them, which i still don't understand why you would have to? Anways, make the wise decision and try to find the best deals.
