Koni yellows, Ground Control sleeves and Eibach springs

For some extra bling go for the top hats

Did you not read any threads in the suspension subforum or post this thread there?

Obviously not since you went right past it and decided to make this thread in GDD.

Anyways get Koni/GC, Eibach, Motor, Bilstein, etc. Can't go wrong with any of them.

Don't cheap out on suspension

Since you're new to this **** I would highly suggest against using a daily driver for a weekend car as well if you need something reliable to get around. It can be done but it will more than likely be expensive and a pain in the *** depending on how you set it up.

If you insist on doing it though I'd go with the GC/Koni setup. Research spring rates and figure out what would suit you best.

Good luck bruh

Honda Civic EG : AST 3-Way 5300 - Honda Civic EG

I would opt in for the double digressive piston.
