Default *new prelude owner* need help with 3rd gen suspension

here's the deal: just bought a 90 prelude for $900 and first thing i'm doing is lowering it. Right now it has stock struts and Neuspeed race springs made for a DA integra.

Finding good parts for these cars are hard, especially for suspension, so my question is what other cars have compatible springs and shocks for it?

Thanks guys

i own tokiko blues and love them! they are your best bet even with that setup
check the site i linked you to make sure under interchanable parts thread
mach111.net sell them for player price 235.00 for all four, this site seems to lack
3rd gen help for some reason ,so go check out http://www.preludepower.com
go to the 3rd gen thread, there tons of writeups and a few thousand 88-91 owners
alone there its a worlwide love with us third gens.
there is a lot of parts from turbo to n/a,suspention,bushing kits sway bars and strut bars any questions feel free to ask me

Don't bother trying to find other models to swap. There are suspension pieces for your model that are good enough.

Ground Control Coilovers
Tokico shocks

thanks for the feedback, the only thing is, i'm not trying to run tokico blues on this car. I've owned two sets of these "performance shocks" on my last two cars ('91 DA Integra and '98 DC gs-r) and while tokico claims that they possess a stiffer ride and whatnot, they are basically just stock replacement non-adjustables.

For this reason, I posed the question of other models that i could swap struts out because this prelude is going to be slammed on the ground, and i would definetely need a stiffer ride than the tokicos can provide me with. 5 or 8 way adjustables is basically what i'm in the market for, they'll give me the stiffness i want to prevent me from scraping and smooth driveability (this is a daily driver).

Thanks again
