i got a 2000 civic si, been wanting to drop my car for awhile but i keep hearing different things about different brands:
1.Skunk2- 3 people said its good, but then i come to HT and read that its "crap"...??
2.Tein Basic Coilovers- I always thought that Tein had pretty good suspension. but then i came to HT and also heard it was crap.
3.H&R- always heard great things about them, but the prices are kinda up...

and also, i'm pretty sure i need to replace the shocks.. they've got about 105,000 miles on them. i was thinking Koni Yellow's

what do you guys suggest? i could probably spend up to $800 max.

Wait a little longer, save up another $100 or so, and buy yourself a set of Ground Control coilovers and Koni Sport dampers.

 

Get Ground Control coilovers

teins aren't crap...whoever told you that needs to rethink his comments. Maybe the basics aren't that great but the SS, FLEX, and the other higher end setup are awesome

 

so Ground Control it is? i think i could get em for about $300. and maybe some Koni Yellow's?

Haven ridden in most tiens and driven some untik you get up to the Tein N1 they still do not compares to a cheapr Koni setup with ground contorls, the Basic, SS and flex are all overpriced for what they do, the qualtiuy is nice the seem to last long but the adjusments and damping are a joke.
