whats the cheapest, best way to lower my 98 teg

i know, noob, ricer, gay question. im sorry

 

it all depends on what your willing to spend!!

 

from worst to best

cut springs
stock shocks and lowering springs
shocks and springs
coilovers

 

i was thinking about going with stock struts and some cheap adjustible springs and save up coilovers.

bad idea?

p.s. im a cheap ***

 

Luckily they don't produce adjustable springs, your thinking of cheap ebay adjustable coilover sleeves. You definately do not want to purchase those unless you want a terrible bouncy ride.

Most likely your stock struts will quickly blow out making for an even worst ride. You should just save up for a nice strut/spring combo or full coilovers depending on your goal.

 

Save up for Function and Form Type I's. I have those on my car and I love it. You can slam the shiet out of your car for only $630.

 

what if i just went lowering springs with the stock struts. then bought some struts in a month or so? would i be safe?

 

TO be honest i have my DB1 on stock struts and NR_G coil-over sleeves. Its bouncy but im used to it. But my car looks hella nice.

 

im sold.

 

you'll probably regret making such a big decesion in an hour. check out the suspension forum.

 

Why don't you just wait until you can afford them both, and install everything all at once to save the aggrivation of removing and installing everything twice?

You're not going to melt if your car rides at stock height for the next 30 days . . .

And don't forget to save some money to have the toe alignment reset after installation, or else you'll be chewing throught the inside shoulders of your tires in no time flat.

 

how much would you guess an alignment would cost after a 1.5"-2" drop? just a ball park estimate.

 

oh and another guestion.. will a 94-97 front bumper fit on a 98. i know theyre different, but would it fit if i got headlights with it?

 

i dont consider a $150 decision that big.

 

well u should

because when ur **** blows and u need to struts, shocks and everything else that "150 dollar decision" becomes 600

and u then woukd be back at square 1

u should save 600 buy coilovers this way u know u have reliability and u can adjust ur ride height

 

i put rs*r springs on my eg hatch and my ej coupe and both sets of shocks blew out....the ones on the hatch had been on there about 15 years and they blew immediately. i honestly couldnt tell a difference between them. im putting gc coilovers on my stock struts on my integra within the next month.

 

yehh great coilovers but dont slam the **** out of your car i still didnt het an alignment after dropping 2 inches

 

if i wanted to get struts and springs seperate and putt them on all at once.

what would you recomend?
im looking for about a 1.5"-2" drop all around

 

i wish i could get some TEIN coil-overs, but im only gonna be 18 and dont got all the money in the world..............YET lol
