Suspension setups for your DD... 3 inch drop is killng me
as of right now, my accord is not working beacuse my driveway is so shitty that ive dented my oil pan to hell on a 3" drop
anyways, i have an 95 coupe with a jdm ls motor thats my dd. i really dont want to lower the car to low but i still want to handle well
i know i could get coilovers, but i dont mess with this car, it still has the stock tape player lol....
anyways just want to know what you guys run on your daily drivers....
i daily drove my accord on sprint extremes (3 inch) and it sucked bawlz...

Some good shocks and quality lowering springs would make the car handle great. Later you can add front and/or rear sway-bars for the extra roll stiffness & confidence.
I suggest (in order of price high to low) Koni Sports, Tokico Illumina, Koni Specials & maybe Sknunk2 Sport for a inexpensive non adjustable option. And springs I recomend Eibach, H&R or Neuspeed for top quality lowering springs. You can choose your ride height from any of the spring packages offered by those guys and call it a day...
You won't have to worry about camber on your civic, but make sure to get an alignment to straighten out toe change from lowering...

is thier anything thats like less than 1 inch drop or no drop at all, this is a beatr man, and some of the roads out here (junkyard etc) are like a wrc course
No there really isn't. If your not gonna do a 1.5" drop, I wouldn't even bother (unless something was broken)...

I don't know what you mean. Strut tower bars don't do anything to the ride height. They simply stiffen the chassis..
And no you won't hardly ever adjust ride height. It's a total PITA since you have to reset all your bushings and get an alignment EVERY time you change it...
****edit*** Are you asking about "sway-bars"? Those don't change ride height either. They simply connect one side of the suspension to the other. This makes the car lean less while cornering and quickens the response of the chassis to changing lateral loads...
