yeah if your lucky, its not that the type r springs will lower the stance which they should but very very minimal, its that they are just stiffer then the other tegs springs. If your getting them for free they what they hell its a little better then the stocks springs from the other integras, but if your buying them I would just shell out a little more cash and buy some springs like eibach, or whatever. Just my 2 cents.

cool thanx guys, what kind of springs should i get if i want to drop it about 1.5 inches and also still be a nice ride? Is 1.5 a good drop or should i go more, i plan on putting 17's on it so do you guys think I will have a bad wheel gap?

IMO I would go more just because its me. you will have wheel gap but it won't bad. I would get the 17's first but don't put them on until you have the money for the springs, just because, so you aren't driving a lifted teg. But anyways get the rims first and see what kind of wheel gap you have and just go from there. If your looking for a good ride the ones i have experienced is Eibach which a very smooth ride, for even a cheaper price and also a smooth ride to is some Sprint springs. So IMO i would wait for the rims first and see how big the gap is. Thats what i did, plus you want have the regrets that I want to lower it more but you already spent the money on the springs you have and already installed them. Or even just get coilovers which won't be as smooth. but you can adjust the height whatever you want.

you will see a little negative camber, but for most cars its not that bad, but I have a 91 teg and I lowered it 3.5 and I needed one bad but 1.75 won't be bad at all just rotate the tires regularly. and it should be fine.

go with something like koni yellows and h&r sports.

don't get 17" rims, they'll look nice and ride smooth but they'll slow you down too. Go for 15" or 16" if you really want the look.
