Default Traction

Whats the best suspension setup for a 4th gen?(Shock&Spring combo's)
Or what are some good coilovers?
I have neuspeed sport springs now, and KYB shocks. Need new setup, something stiff that will keep the *** end from sagging alot, on accelaration.

In my 94 Vtec, I have Eibach Pro's and Tokiko Illumina's (5 way adj)

Neuspeed upper front strut & a generic rear upper strut.

I'm happy so far... Minimizes the understeer...

I am running the same setup(almost) as Que_ in my 1990 Prelude. Eibach springs and Tokico performance gas shocks. First time I drove it, I hit my head on the driver side window b/c I was driving across the grooves in the road and didn't know anything about how perf. suspension handles..... heh, I know lots now and wear a helmet j/k

It's pretty stiff, you'll feel every bump in the road!. Probably a better setting for a smooth road track than the street...

I hear that Koni Yellows + Ground Control are a really good combo...but only if you know what you're doing. Check out NTPOG, I think they have a review of this combo for the 4th gen.
