Air bags.

Or air cylinders.

Expect to chew through lots of tires.

 

I'm not doing air ride, had it before and I didnt like it, maybe for a show car, but not a dd...
i'm looking for coilovers or springs

I don't think you're going to be as low as you describe, but whatever.
Search for the slammed cars thread in A/C. Tons of stuff to look at.

i was slammed on koni yellows not even close to the bumpstops. you can slam your car on function/form coilovers and they will ride good too for a dd. im getting function/forms for my dd as well and plan on slamming it.

whats the point of posting if you're not going to help this guy out.

 

thanks donut, im still looking into it, i'll get something done by spring... most people on here think "this is the way i did my car, and thats the best way." people have different taste and opinions...

That's exactly right, and you're going to get all sorts of opinions on a web forum - some based off of experience and knowledge, some based off of hearsay and rumors, and some will be flat out misinformation. You're not always going to like what you hear, but if you want what's best for your needs, you're going to have to keep an open mind.

 

What didn't you like about air bags?

 

dont listen to these guys. if you like your car sitting on its nuts like i do. then you have to sacrifice a little. just go with some kyb agxs and some ground control coilovers and turn that **** all the way down.

 

i ran into too many problems with them, maybe because it was my first time and my first set... but i didnt like the compressor making all types of noise, and i didnt want to get a HUGE compressor that will take up my entire trunk... i didnt like the ride i got either, i couldntdo 85mph without feeling iffy... dont get me wrong, its perfect for a show car or a truck, but you'll get tired of it after a while...

 

lol thanks

kyb agx's are proven to blow after a 1.5-2" drop. since you say "dont listen to these guys", you seem to know it all, so please explain.

 

well most people on here are against slammed cars so i meant dont listen to the haters.i do not know everything sorry if i came off that way...i have a 93 4 door civic that i have had on the same agxs and ground controls for over 2 years and they are turned all the way down. its so low i fear speed bumps. and my struts are not blown.everyone is entitled to their opinion.

 

sorry man, but chances are, your struts are blown. agx's can't handle that drop, especially for 2 years.

 

to the OP, heres a thread you might want to check out

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=2077238

 

i think the best setup to be slammed is ground control and koni yellows with the ground control top hats. the whole setup goes for about $975. really good setup for being slammed.

I AM helping this guy out. This sLamMing tHe Ridz crap is getting out of hand. If he wants to look like an idiot, ruin a perfectly good suspension setup, but get mad props from other 16-20 year olds flossin' sLamMed ridz here on Honda-Tech...I guess I'm done here.

Good luck.

 

I'll help Ill help!! ready...

Why do you even bother having a suspension? Its all useless. THEY ARE DESIGNED FOR PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY WANT A BETTER HANDLING CAR, not for bAller wannabe Kali kids who just want E props from other retards. This guy is another product of moroness produced from H-T .

 

you seem pretty mad at the world huh. what happened to you poor baby? well, i want to lower my daily driver just like the OP because we like the look of a lowered/slammed car. i could care less about the functionality/handling of it because its a DAILY DRIVER, did you miss that? what the **** am im going to take a DD to a track for? i have another car for that. you have a problem with that? if you have a problem with what other people do to their cars then go cry somewhere else

if you're on this forum just to talk **** like your signature says, you must have something lacking in your life.

Your "Track Car" looked pretty slammed in the last issue of "Super Street"

 

if you dont like slammed cars why reply to his post? i dont give a [freak] what other people think about my car and i like it sitting on its nuts..i think almost any car looks better slammed so what thats my opinion.if you dont like slammed cars then dont slam yours.

 

thats besides the point but if you want to get into it, ill shoot the **** with you. I still pulled the same times as sti's (HAHAHAHHAHA!!!!!!!!!) so raising it an inch will prob shave 2 seconds off my laptime, at the most, so what. do i care? no. so why do you? just answer that.

by the way, i think you're very miseducated on what slammed truely is. have you noticed that im running 40 series tires on 16" rims and my spoon lip hangs low as hell? its all an optical illusion. also, its called adjustable shock bodies. i have optimal suspension travel on my EG.
