Buy new ones, I think eibach makes springs for 1st gen rex. Do a google search. Are you looking to lower it?

Eibach does in fact make springs for that generation but it's only for the rear. It states that the front torsion bar is adjustable. You can buy aftermarket front torsion bars that will lower the front of the car about an 1" to an 1 1/4". I've found aftermarket front torsion bars at this website here: http://www.upgrademotoring.com...n.htm

You'd be best off getting the 24mm @ 204 lb spring rate torsion bars if you just use it as a street car. Then getting the Eibach springs for the rear. It'd be a 1" drop all around just about.

the only place it has springs is in the rear, with separate shocks - it does not have struts - 84-87 CRX/Civic and 86-89 Integras will work - the front has torsion bars which you can adjust under the car to lower it about 1" or a little more - if you want more, you need to remove the torsion bars and relocate the splines in the torque tube - since the rear uses a single "axle" and is not independent suspension, if you lower the rear you need an adjustable panhard bar in order to keep everything centered under the car
