88' CRX had H&R Race springs with stock shocks
89' Civic HB has SK2 c/o's with Tokico whites

the Hatchback was a auto-x car ans handled well.
the CRX was a drag/daily driver and cut 1.8 60' with BFG's

i've had my skunk2 drag launch/tokiko adjustable setup in three different ef's now

somebody use to sell just the drag launch springs if you have already have a "sleeve" type coil over. inline four or lightnight motorsports i want to say. you can't also get custom spring rates through ground control.

skunk springs and tokico 5 ways, type r rear because I have an 88 CRX. Custom "traction bars", 'washer trick' on the rear suspension, most ES bushings, "EBAY" skunk2 style upper control arms, and hard custom engine mounts (I consider engine mounts as something that directly affects the suspension.)

1.6 60fts with slicks on.

you dont need to spend a ton of money on high end springs or shocks IMO. Just cover all aspects of the suspension.

I use the Omni Power Drag coilovers for EG/DC. Like Garage 808 said just gotta use the EG front forks. Everything bolts right on. I daily drive on these too.

I was running Kyb AGX's with skunk coilovers, 900lb rear springs. cut 1.66-1.69 60fts all day long. 435whp b16 hatch.

budget setups are ok, but after a while you just want more. and the price for omni's isnt much more that agx's and skunks.

but i want 1.4-1.5 60's now
