where can i find a susp set up for my 87 hb?? any links??

thanx

 

Im guessing you mean aftermarket? OPM motorsports has a lot of suspension stuff for 84-87 civic/crx's. For the front many companies make struts for them i.e., Tokico, Koni and KYB and OPM has 22 and 27 mm torsion bars. I know that Ground control makes coilovers for the rear. Check out OPM though they offer a lot of suspension upgrades.

 

Go to ground control's site they are pretty top notch in 1st. gen susp.

 

wow thnks i just cheked both sites lots of help thnx

 

sorry forgot to mention wut would u guys think would be the best setup with a gsr motor in 87 hb?? susp wise offcourse

 

23mm torsion bars from Ground Control or OPM, rear coil over kit from OPM, Tokico or Koni adjustable shocks, remove front sway bar, add rear sway bar (I like the 19mm Addco bar), and Energy Suspension bushings. This will give you a killer suspension.

y remove the sway bars??

 

Sorry, should have clarified. If you're autocrossing you should remove the front sway bar. For street and track, you may want to leave it on.

Reason? If you remove the front sway bar you reduce understeer. Same reason for adding a rear sway bar, you increase oversteer.

Generally stiff front = understeer, stiff rear = oversteer. Manufacturers dial in understeer because it's safe for the general non-enthusiast public. This is bad for optimal race oriented front drive handling.
