Default Your Accord's Suspension

So what's the current suspension on your car?
Shocks?
Springs?
Bars?
Camber Kits?

So far I just have my springs (H&R's), I'm looking for what shocks to buy (leaning towards Koni yellows). And most likely I'm going to pick up a 3 point strut bar from Password JDM if they offer one for my 96 Accord. I just want my car to feel like it were brand new, not like it's going to fall apart on every bump.

My gf's 96 is running Neuspeed sports and koni reds which we are changing out for H&R OE's and Illumina's because the current set-up is too low for NYC/LI.

We have Koni reds but I dunno how they compare as we haven't gotten around to installing the new suspension in yet. The only reason I got the illumina's is that they're adjustable. We originally had Tein Baisc CO's but exchanged that when I found out that they were prelowered ie highest raised setting, it was still close to the drop of the Neuspeed's.

H&R sports
KYB AGX's
Stillen front strut bar.

I like this combo better than the Eibach sportlines I had, for an everyday driver at least. For track, I would rather have the sportlines back.

generic Front/Rear strut bars
Collective Racing adjustable traction bar

Handles amazingly. Rides great even on full stiff. Handles the stupid amounts of power.
