Default Pics of my car....FINALLY Lowered.

Finally after owning 3 civics over the last 4 years, I have done some suspension work....allways had trouble buying turbos and swaps b4 suspension mods!

FYI: Hopefully the pics work...my first time hosting with Wetodddidracing.






My car and my friends New EP3.


Don't want anyone thinking I dont have go fast goodies!

Looks good

Now your friend's EP needs to be lowered. Compared to your car it looks so high.

You are right about that....lowering and Wheels are first on his list.

Oh, my lowering was accomplished with Koni Yellows, and Ground Control coilovers. Car rides Excellent!

Although I am running 215 40 R16 tires....and I scrape some in the front over big bumps in the road so I may have to raise the car a little.

Car looks great. The next thing on your list should be a set of oem sway bars. Ctr in front, ITR in the rear. Then, you'll realize how well your car handles.

I have a ctr front bar and an ITR rear bar with stock shocks/springs and my car now handles almost as well as my previous car with Teins. It's insane what they can do

Those are on my list Fowler. For next year maybe.

To switch to the CTR front bar I would need Si lower control arms, correct?

I agree. An Si lip would be perfect

Nice choice on the suspension! What do you run your shocks at on the street?

nice . i'd suggest a front lip and a wing, but it still looks good the way it is right now.

I got an Si lip in the Garage! Need to buy mounting hardware still. Need an Si grille too.

I'm not sure what I run the shocks at...I have left them at the factory level. I'll play with them next weekend sometime.

Thanks for all the good comments!
