93 Civic Hatch. I bought it with cheap ebay coilovers on stock shocks..so obviously with the dead shocks it was bottoming out and you could hear what i was guessing were the coilovers hitting. Now I upgraded my suspension to H&R Race/Koni Yellow. Now when I hit a bump on the same side I still hear what sounds like the springs bottoming out.

Now my question is what could have gone bad that now its still doing the same on NEW suspension??

 

Check the condition of your bushings. Are they ripped? Is your swaybar properly connected at all point?

 

Everything is GOOD!! I noticed that the H&Rs are coiled more on the top..does that make it prone to bottoming out when i hit a bump therefore you can hear the spring hitting??

 

The H&R Race springs are progressively wound. The more closely spaced coils are supposed to bottom out and become dead during compression, reducing the amount of active coils you have and the rate changes.

Are the springs properly seated on the shocks' spring perches?

 

Yes..triple checked..the sound it makes when i hit a bump annoys the **** out of me..im gonna have to check more things.
