My Eibach Sportline and Koni sport setup on my 97 EK
This is just for future searchers, I could only find 2 pictures when I was searching to find this ride height. This is my Daily driver, thats why I went for the Eibach (progressive rate) Sportline and Koni Yellow setup on here, it rides never nice and not harsh at all. I have had it on for a few days to allow the springs to settle (if they had to) before taking pictures. I am very satified with the ride height and I love the smoothness of it. Anyway here are 2 pics I took, dont mind the dirt - we just had a snow storm. Hope this helps people in the future.

nice! the only thing i dont like about the eibachs is how the front always seems higher than the back. *maybe that's just me*

Re: My Eibach Sportline and Koni sport setup on my 97 EK (iriemark)
Ha yeah I do need to wash her bad, I hate having my car dirty
Eibachs may seem higher in the front due to the wheel wells being bigger in the front then the rear on civic's. I could not messure it before as I had a Coil over setup on and did not know the previous ride height to see exactly how much drop I got. With the Koni's I could adjust the height but I like how it sits as of now.
It ran ME $722 including all shipping and such for 4 Koni Yellows, Eibach Sportline kit and a set of Omni-Power LCA's (good thing I had some instock as when I removed my left rear LCA I found out it was VERY bent? I never hit anything so maybe the owner before me did? So anyway thats why I put those LCA's on (plus they are pretty
).
I think I will add a stock 26mm Si front sway bar (EX stock is 24mm) and I'll try a stock Si rear bar for now (With ASR brace) and if that is not enough I will get the ITR later on but I dont want to over do it as it is a DD not a race car, so I think the stock Si rear bar will be fine unless I deside to try autoX or something (Highly doubt) BTW. If you think I am throwing money away on those stock parts, I got the for free from a SI owner who upgraded his bars and did not want the stock parts back
Thanks for the kind words guys!
