Default Looking for Tein S-Tech or similar Lower Spring

Hello community, I have a 2003 Civic ES1 (assembly in brazil)

I searched for my car lower springs on ebay, but can not find someone that assures me if is compatible with my car, as most marketers are not sure they are compatible with my car, only assure compatibility with assembly Civic in CANADA.

I'm looking for a Lower springs "Tein S-Tech" (green) I've used on my other Honda's and I like them because they lower only the necessary and kept the smoothness to ride.

Someone can help me looking for specific model TEIN S-Tech(green) lower spring for my civic, brazilian made? also could be some other brand of lower spring like a skunk2, eibcah, meganracing, etc ...


I'm From chile, but i can buy on ebay with delivery in my country

Your car was probably made in Canada. Check the VIN number...it should start with a 2. As in 2HGEM2....

A lot of Hondas are made in Canada. Eh?

No, My car is assembly in brasil. In chile only arrive hondas 7° gen canadian between years 2001-2002. The rest of hondas 7°gen in southamerica are assembly in brasil between years 2003-2005. The VIN Number of my car start with 93HES1.....

I understand all hondas's 7° gen are the same thing, only change the assambly. The engine, components, accesories, etc are japanese

In southamerica only arrived civic ES1/ES2. The EM2 it was possible bought by direct import in Honda Chile

I am 100% positive.

As for an eBay dealer of TEIN products... well, I would be cautious of any eBay seller stating they're selling TEIN products, since there are TONS of counterfeit TEIN springs out there that look real, when they're actually unsafe fakes.
