Car handles Bumps like ****
Hey. My 95 civic ex is really starting to handel bumps like ****. A little speed bump makes the whole inside of the car shake and squeak and ****. it has never done this before. Do i need new shocks or springs or something? If so can i get prefoirmance suspension so i can lower my car which will be my next mod.

Re: Car handles Bumps like **** (kingpen)
sounds just like my del sol, i was wondering wtf is wrong with it now. 
any answers? i am thinking, are my shocks gone or what? The whole car just moves, like from left to right........shakes, and i can feel the steering wheels does it too. What is wrong?

My car did this as soon as I installed coilovers.... I got them for free off a friend, but they're a **** brand .... I thought It was my shocks at first but I just changed to KYB Adjustable gas shocks and it's not as rought but it stills happens....
Only thing that it could be is the shitty coilovers .....

prefoirmance
no, but seriously, get some coilovers for $400 and that'll cover all your bases. if you want to drop some serious money, look into teins or APEXi race system coilovers.

HEy man go with Arospeed coilovers, the only problem with these are that they are racing coilovers and they are very hard on stock shocks so get them and aftermarket shocks it will be great, I have it done that way its low and when you hit a bump you barely feel it. Good luck

I've got the Koni set-up and that **** rides like a dream, kinda pricey 
but I love it. Plus adjustables rule because you can make them as stiff as you want or make the ride even better than stock.

Yeah, I have the Koni threaded suspension kit, and full polyurethane bushings. Ambulances with chiropracters at the wheel follow me around.

"yes alot of minles 130,000 almost"
If you have 130,000 miles on your stock shocks get new shocks first worry about the rest later. Stock shocks are usally only good for about 60,000 miles then there performance degrades.
