Default '98 HX VS '99 Si suspension?

So, do these things exist? '99 Si coupe? Not sure if I've seen one, but it has some intersting bits that I'd bring many wrenches to Pull-A-Part for my '98 HX coupe...

In my quest for stiffer/sportier suspension, I find lowered springs/ride height... or packages that may be too sporty for everyday use (my objective: firm it up, reduce body roll, stock ride height, CHEAP heehee).

My questions is: What are my odds of finding used, and does anyone know of the quality / handling aspects of this car?

From: http://www.superstreetonline.com/roadtests/3113/

"The suspension has been tweaked via special Honda Progressive Valve (HPV) struts, stiffer springs (25 percent up front, 33 percent in the rear, compared to the Civic EX), a 26mm stabilizer bar in the front (4mm larger than the EX), and a 13mm bar in the rear. Vented discs (10.7-inch front, 9.4-inch rear) reside at the corners, as do standard 15-inch alloy wheels and 195/55R15 tires. "

Thanks,

So your askin if they made a 99 SI? Yes they made one. Suspension differences? Im not sure... I would think that the SI would be a littel stiffer....so you could prolly pick it up cheap.(The used Suspension)
