Default Bouncy *** suspension... What's going on?

Okay I just got rid of my coilovers and threw on some stock shocks and springs for my 93 civic Hatch (EG), and Once I started driving it I noticed it was really bouncy. Not like stiff bouncy, but more like it rocks alot. I can't really explain it but it feels like I'm driving a boat in water. Its really rocky I guess you can say. Do I need to just give the shocks and springs more time to set, or is there something wrong.

Your shocks are blown. My rear stock shocks were blown and it did this. Very bouncy and looks ridiculous from a 3rd person's view.

It's not wise to use OEM struts on lowered suspension coils. I do, but it's not wise. But indeed, your struts are blown.
