H&R race or sport
I having trouble deciding between the two. Which one would you recomend for daily driving. Ive heard good and bad about both. Pics and your thoughts about the ride of both would be cool too. Thanks
H&R has a huge gallery on their website, I bet you can find a pic of a car like yours on there with either spring.
If you're gunning for more performance, and are ok with sacrificing some of the ultimate ride quality and want an aggressive drop the race is the way to go. Prolly gunna need some performance shocks at the same time if you're running on stockers.
If you don't want the aggressive drop, the sport is awesome, go with that.

Sport are better as they don't lower the car so much to make it useless for daily driving. Meaning you can actually go over bumps.
Race are too low and will not ride the same as Sports because almost all shocks have trouble with a 2.5" drop

Ill be using AGX shocks if that helps too

get the sports for a daily driver. theyre a lot more practical for ride height and are smoother. if you want the race springs then dont get agxs
, get koni's sp3s.

dood,, I have H&R Race on a 1996 Hatch, and I ******* hate them. I mean they look cool from far, but when U have to drive and bottom out everyday, and ur sideskirts begin to loosen and fall, you know that you are way too low

o..haha aite...but gr-2s are close to the stock shocks...well if you decide on the springs thats koo too...springs should ride better than coils...

Well I decided to just get the AGX's and try to keep myself from slamin it to the ground. I dont want to be desapointed with the height of the spring and have to double back on work. **** with the $150 that Im not using for the springs, I might get Illuminas. So many options with Hondas and Acuras.........
i have H&R Race springs... on stocks right no but i just ordered koni yellows. if you're worried about ride quality, speed bumps, tearing up the header/catback... don't drop your car. my friend has an EK with konis on GC coils... never anyting i mentioned above happened. just get some good shocks.

your prelude might sit differently on them than a civic.

why dont you get Konis? theyre better than Illuminas or AGXs and work well with GCs.
heres a pic of my car dropped on the H&R sports:

Damn that does look good. Maybe Ill put those on my girls GS-R
Well I order the AGX's yesterday. I would have gone the Koni route but I would have had to get those sleeve things to make them work with the ground controls. Didnt feel like going threw the hasel. I really want to put most of my money into the GS-R. Then come back to the civic.

it's so weird that i'm not getting much drop from my H&R sport maybe like 1.5" front and 0.9" rear.... will it alwways be like that when you first put it in? i have a gutted crx..... so the rear is real light? so im wondering will it affect the the height?
kjmagnum: what shocks did u use and did u cut the bumpstop or just did put back what u had stock on the car?
