93 CIVIC
-Need sugestions on which coil over kit to buy?
-Should I go with OPT 1: full coil over kit or OPT 2: coil over sleeve with AGX/KYB/TOKIKO struts.
-I'm leaning more towards OPT 2 because its cheaper, unless otherwise.
-Is $500 for skunk2 coil overs cheap or exp?

full coilovers are way better than coilover sleeves with struts, but then again it all depends on what you intend to use them for, show, autox, street? $500 is a ripoff for skunk2 coilovers, since they retail for $300. anything around 200 would be a good deal for skunk2 coilovers.

I intend to use it mainly for street and show. Has anyone heard of VIS V-racing coilovers, its about $350 cnd. Thankx for the input so far.

 

I love my NEX full threaded coilover kit. I have had several different suspension set ups, different spring, coilover, and shock setups and this wins hands down.

NEX all the way baby!

 

it all depends on your budget and also which are the best for price wize.
if you are looking at 350-to the most on spending 700 then i couldnt tell you to go with buddy clubs . its all in you budget!

 

get skunk2 coil overs or ground effects i think they cost like $250

 

ground controls are really good with some koni yellows. Ground controls cost around 285 to 325. Skunks are good, but they have a harsh ride, but if racing is your thing then skunks are good. It also depends on your spring rate too. For cruising and street racing they are good.

Im starting to lean towards Skunk2 and Ground Controls. But are there any other coil overs I should concider. My budget is roughly $1300 CAN. Anyways I would have my final decision in about a week. Thanks GUYS.

 

Koni coilovers (yes, koni coilovers)
or ground controls with koni yellows
about the same price. GC's have adjustable spring rates and i heard rumors that the konis should too.

 

I got my koni yellows/h&r race springs for $1250CAN(about $790US) installed. Kinda wish I had got GC's so I could adjust the height.

 

Has anyone bought those red coilover setup in the importtuner magazine?

 

GROUND CONTROLS are the SH*T!!!!!

 

Take a look at Progress Auto Groups coil-overs. They have a lot of testimonials on thier site and numbers to use for refrence.

Ground controls with Koni Yellow adjustable shocks


Khoi

 

agreed

 

-Anyone know the spring rates for the Ground Controls & Skunk 2s?
-Does the GC and Skunks have progresive or linear springs?
-How low should I drop my 93 Civic 4dr? Is 1.5" to 1.75" good? Im running on 205/40/16
