My first piece of advice; Read all the gray colored threads at the top of this forum before you hit the "New Thread" button again. After that, if you still have questions then hit the Search link in the dark gray bar and use the advanced search.

Chances are you are asking the same questions that have already been answered a thousand times.

^ I agree with you marc, except the search function here sucks! He is much better off useing google.

at the end of the question, type HT or honda-tech in. You'll then see many threads from here pop up.

We're happy to anwer questions, but you need to help us help you... Doing some research first is the best way to do this.

The advanced search works until a point, then you go to Google.

If youʻre just trying to slam your car, look for the cheapest possible set up out there and pair them with extended top hats that werenʻt made for them. If youʻre looking for something that rides pretty decent read that post first.
