If you're looking for no gap and don't care about the rest, go to ebay and find the cheapest set of "coilovers".

neuspeed race springs seem to drop the car too low for proper suspension travel. a lot of ppl use em. but i also hear ppl say they its too low.

Unless you have a b-series up front, stay away from the S Tech's, they will give your car a reverse rake. Not cool.

You can't have a Civic lowered to the point of having no gap and call that good for a daily driver. No springs can compensate for the lack of travel. If they're stiff enough to stop you from bottoming out, they're stiff enough to give you kidney damage. Skipping across the road not only looks stupid but it's dangerous.

Get some springs with a reasonable drop, and get some big rims with big profile tires. Then put on some side skirts. It wont be good for handling, but it's better than being slammed.
