hey everyone! i was wondering, whats a good suspension set up to slam my dc2 and still have it smooth. something decent but doesnt bounce every single second. if you guys can help can you tell me what are good shocks and coilovers. and for the people that slam there integras! whats your susupension set up cause i wanna slam mines too! thanks

 

read the sticky. depending on your tolerance it will depend on what is smooth. to me stock is smooth but my tolerance from my hatch setup allowed me not to be bothered from my sedan when i was slammed. but by slamming the car you are not letting the suspension do the work it was intended to do.

 

can anyone help me and tell me why my 98 civic wont cruise at 2000rpms i have to accellerate and shift into 4th gear to cruise at 25mph. the car runs great when after 2000rpms but when around 2000rpms the car bogs and studders like its going to stall then comes bak only when going faster

 

check your timing.

 

read the sticky, you can get koni/gc it wont be stock smooth a bit stiff but bearable, get top hats all around u can also get custom spring rates i dont know good rates ppl are guna have to help u with that

 

why would it be the timing? the car drives great with no problems its when trying to drive in 2nd gear around 25mph the car studders but wen u shift it stops it will cruise at a low gear but not at a high gear

 

well first off it is going to be hard for the car to drive at 25mph in 4th gear as you stated before because you are turning around maybe 1100rpms. whereas in 2nd at 25mph you are close to 3000rpms. this is easier for your for your car to make power and feel like it is not bogging. second off if you are having power issue problems it.s going to be fuel or ignition...

 

let me break it down for u to make it easier to understand.....when i start the car it idles perfect no problems. when u put it into 1st and give it gas it drives but the engine studders when u go into 2nd which then ur about 2000 to 3000 rpms the engine still studders, it doesnt let u cruise basically on one speed like for example 25mph. i have to go up to 4th gear to let it cruise on any speed that is 200rpms....basically when its at 2000rpms the engine studders like if there is no idle control to let u cruise on one speed i have to constantly go up to speed then release the pedal then bak again jus to hold up to speed. if u understand wat im saying? could it be the throttle body or the pintle shaft in it that getting stuck so its not holding a str8 idle? its a simple fix but its hard to know what to fix

 

I slammed it already but it is very bouncy. Like every single second it bounces. I have stock shocks and a no brand name coilover that loos likes groundcontrol. Whats tge reason why it bounces so much. Is it cause of the stock shocks?

 

i see your point now. it was kind of confusing before. possibly a sticky throttle cable..also maybe your tps is jacked up and reading wrong so giving the pcm "wrong" inputs.

 

all of the above.

 

lol seeing how no name coils are bouncy to begin with, matched with stock shocks make it even worse, yur shocks are most likly blown since they cant handle those spring rates

 

So what shocks and coilovers should i get

 

What will you be doing with these, daily, auto-x and how much $$ are you willing to spend? The other thing is how long do you plan to keep your car?

 

what all mods have been done?

 

well i just bought this car. its a 99 acura integra ls. the back came with coilovers and the front came with tein springs. i replaced the springs to put some no name brand coilovers that look like ground control and i used stock shocks. i slammed it about half a tire. when i drive it just always bounces every second. i just want to know how i can stop that. is it by gettin new shocks or coilover or even both? if so what kind of coilovers should i get and shocks

 

I would start all over. GC/Koni combo. If you have the $$ then AMR. Both lifetime warranty.
