tuSuspension Civic EK4
Hi guys,
Im new around here, my name is Francisco & I come from Portugal.
I've been around the forum and.. 'WOW'... this is completely different from what I see here, back in my Home land.
Anyway, the reason why I'm posting is because I've been searching quite a long time now for suspension kits, etc, for my Civic EK4.
Can anyone help with with brands/models of Shocks, Springs, Suspension Kits for this Civic?
I have already found Bilstein/Koni Sport Suspension kits, and White Line (springs) as well but I guess that you have a better idea for what I'm searching for....
The car goes in the streets of Lisbon (50% holes...LOL) so I guess I don't want a RACE kit.. but one that can go on the street and can go into the Trackday's (Every 4 months) from time to time.
Can anyone help with this?
Thanks in advance,
Francisco
PS: My car
100% Stock (Here things are really expensive... but i'm working on it...)

Re: tuSuspension Civic EK4 (PlaN3t)
i use a koni sport kit. coilover height adjustment with adjustable dampening. basically they are koni yellows with some sort of progressive rate spring, on threaded collars. i have no complaints so far. tune them soft and the car rides very well (even on potholes!) , but if you firm them up, they do pretty well at stiffening everything up. they do enough that you can REALLY change your cars handling characteristics, good or bad.
nice car.
nice car.

Re: tuSuspension Civic EK4 (B16b2b)
Thanks for the reply
Here in Portugal many people use the Koni Sport kit (the yellow ones) and some use the Koni Special (Red/Rose).
I'm almost positively sure that i'll tune the Koni Sport but... with White Line Springs ( http://www.whiteline.com.au )
Does anyone here uses white line or knows the brand or even if you have an opinion 'bout it...please post here pls.
