Default h&r race springs on our ef's

so i've been searching and read through a bunch of threads. some people say they leave a finger or two gap. others say no gap at all. i just wanted to get final answer. (i searched for the race springs, not the sports)

my plan is to match them up with tokico illuminas and tuck some tire. pictures would be nice. thanks guys

Well I'll be the first to start I guess.

This is my 91 ef hatch with Koni Yellows and H&R Race Springs. This is with 16x7 Rotas on 205/40/16's. Have had them on the car for 2+ years. The ride is nice and smooth.







Don't hate on the pink wheels lol.

make sure you post how long it's been on our car...that way if someone is going to buy or just put a new set of springs or coilovers on, they'll know how low it'll be once it settles

Pink wheels are Rota slips 16x7 as well as the Bronze Rota Circuit 8's. My buddy had the Slips because when he had traded his CRX i lent him my steelies to send with the car so he could keep his wheels, the guy he traded didnt like them lol.


*edit* Just PM'd CrxToad about making an official suspension picture thread just to run it by him.

H&R race springs usually slam integras and newer civics.... i'm disappointed to see the civic above still has gap in the front!!

anybody have any more pics of H&R race on ef / crx??

I'm pretty sure that Robb was running that setup on one of his red CRXs (and then crashed it later?)

Do you mean the "Official EF Suspension Thread" that already exists?
