As long as they are in good condition, that sounds like a decent deal to me. Personally, I would go with coilovers and adjustable shocks but to each his own.

If money's so tight, then maybe buying suspension parts isn't such a good idea. Especially not with springs that require you to go out and buy an [expensive]camber kit. I'd rather buy a nice set of shocks and some good OEM ITR springs and get the handling I want, and not need to use a camber kit.

well while that is true and a cheap way to have a great handling honda...i also want the lowered appeal and having a camber kit is a good thing even though it is costly ...what do u think about that price though?

I don't think it's that great of a deal. I'd never use used shock absorbers.

I'd say good deal if they are in good condition. And trying to go cheap/cut corners with suspension will cost you in the long run.
