Default Eibach Sportline

so if i have a set of Eibach Sportline lowering springs..what else do i need to lower my car about 1-1.5" properly (ie: so i don't damage my stock suspension?) and what am i looking to spend?

its gonna go on a 1992 civic hb with itr suspension....

its gonna be a daily driver, in a city with bad winters, so lotta pot holes...so something not too "bouncy?" performance, looking for handling...eventually autocross it....hope that covers all the details......any suggestions?

sportlines drop, i believe 1.7-2.3". the pro-kit is the one that drops 1.0-1.5

if u go with the 1.0-1.5 drop, u wont need to worry about camber issues but maybe rubbing depending on ur tire/wheel size. with sportlines, ull most likely see camber issues and'll need to do the rear washer trick/front camber kit.

and for shocks... autocrossing? you'll probably want koni yellows since they offer the most amount of adjustability. koni yellows will eat about $500 out of you. tokico's don't offer that much adjustability so u prolly dont want those. kyb agx's might be in your league but dont know much about em.

whats the washer trick for the rear? where would u put the washer to correct camber issues?

i have sportlines and i love the drop...not too low and not too high...but i haven't gotten alignment yet also so yea..i'm thinking of getting a cmaber kit but if its not that bad then i wouldn't even mess with it
