I have a budget of around 600-700$ i have been saving for a while for coils , I have a 94 integra gsr , do you guys recommend any coils for that price range
I am not going to be using it for track. I want a stance look and i don't mind the ride being stiff
I was looking at tein street basis

 

The street basis is a great system. But if you're planning on slamming the car, you might want to get something that's full body adjustable.

 

Tein Basic will NOT give you the stance look at all. For that price range the only two options I can think of are Function and Form Type 1, and Yonaka's. These two are basically the same tbh. I'd suggest from personal experience waiting a bit and getting something that gives you more low and a better ride (with dampening adjusting). Such as D2 Super Low (I own these), and BC Extreme Drop.

 

i wouldn't go with the tein, you can get just as good stuff for cheaper imo

 

Lol

 

Have you looked into ground control cool overs with koni orange struts? In my opinion they ride very well.

 

They won't work for a "stance look".

 

Isn't a stanced look basically slammed? Don't bash me please lol I'm not up to date on the worlds terms anymore.
I've used the gc/koni setup on my civics in the past it dropped it to about 2in off the ground, made it drivable and rode similar to stock. I'm sure u guys have tried more set ups than myself. Just trying to help out.

 

Not bashing you at all. Stanced means lowered agressively.

We've all made the mistake of slamming a car on stock length shocks. Koni yellows and oranges are stock length shocks. They are the absolute incorrect application to lower a 90's-early 2000's civic/integra more than maybe 1.38" from stock.

These cars don't have much front shock travel. If you lowered it like you say you did...you were riding around on bumpstops...not springs. For instance...if you lower a 94-01 integra about 1.5" from stock (measured at the wheel-to-fender gap), you will have 1.5" TOTAL shock stroke left (!!!). An average shortened bumpstop is like 1.25". They are progressive and are meant to be used as extra spring rate...but even if you're lowered modestly, you will be using bumpstops virtually ALL the time.

And it probably rode badly...but you didn't notice. I sure didn't, 10-15 years ago...when I was slamming cars on konis and tokicos, before I knew better.

Suspension systems have also come a long way. And "rides good" has always been a relative term.

For all those reasons, if you rode in a modern, well calibrated setup, you'd see how badly your old car actually rode.

Slamming a car is best done with full length adjustable shocks. Even when you do that...you'll need heavy springs to keep the upper control arm from destroying the shock tower. The lower you go...the more you have to increase the spring rate to keep the UCA away from the tower. The bumpstops won't be active with a full body adjustable coilover because you're adjusting case (body) length whilw keeping shock stroke the same. The shocks will do as they are designed to do and give the suspension maximum upward travel without bottoming out the shock. The UCA meeting the shock tower is the next thing that happens.

 

Touché sir! Lol
Let us know what set up you decide on.

 

Lol for the record, I am not "stancing" anything. OP is.
