A B18 isn't that much more than a D series. It's like 60lbs. Would you change your springs if you lost a lot of weight, unless you were like professionally racing?

to be honest i wouldnt change the springs, the weight difference really isnt enough to effect anything, it will but not much,

Almost any aftermarket set up would be good man. B18 swap is not that big of a weight diff. I personly have a civic with a b18c swap and im runnin Tokico illumina on h&r race springs and i like it. also kyb agx n voglan springs is ok for there price.(old set up)
