i have a EF 89 Civic Si on some ol'skool sportline's for my daily driving, but the question i have is what kind of springs, coilovers, spring rates or combination of any type within a simple budget will offer a smooth ride for the streets? I just wanna see what EF experts out there could give any input because with all my experiences with DA's and EF's they always had a way harsher ride compared to EG's,EK's,and DC's

 

anybody?

 

my brother in law got the K-sports. i have the omni's and i love the way his crx feels it feels really smooth not super or too harsh at all and handles pretty damn good.. my omnis are a bit on the harsh side and the front end wont lower as much as the rear... actually my front end wont got any lower than 1.5" above the wheel.

 

for k sports. I dont have them personally, but a good friend does, and it rides nice. I just have the nuespeed race springs, and tokiko illuminas. I dont really like what I have. I would like to upgrade to the k sports.

 

thanks for the responses!

 

how much do ksports go for?

 

I have H&R Sport springs, they drop 1.8"/1.9" front/rear (or vice versa )
but this is my 4th suspension combination on my EF's and it's definitely my favorite. It's very forgiving for a daily driver....I never worry about speed bumps or potholes unless they're loch ness or some ****..
Other cars I've had were lowered 3-4" and they were punishing my back and my passengers.
And stock suspension it too soft we all know that...

pm DRFlickner (of JLB Motorsports on here). i guarantee he can give you the lowest price you can find. i'll bet money on it.

i just put my ksports on with 11k/9k spring rates (the standard is 10k/6k) and i ******* love them. keep in mind that everyone wants something different when they shop for suspension...i wanted a stiff ride.
