You might be able to get by with 1.5"... Just get an alignment right away to see where you stand.

You don't need shocks for that drop but if you want to do it correctly, buy shocks. When I had my prelude I had it lowered on eibach sportlines (1.8"-2") and after about 6 months one of my rear shocks shat on me and started leaking when I jacked it up. Even if you don't buy top of the line shocks, atleast get something that was designed to handle the spring rates that you're getting. You can find them cheap I'm sure.
