I was thinkin bout puttin bags or air struts on my 89 civic hatchback? should i do that? or just go with coilovers or springs? if someone has done this...how does it ride???

 

Performance go for springs/coilovers. Show go for bags.

 

dont get air bags on a Honda

 

There is a 89 civic around my area that i see all the time on bags. It looks good. I say if you want them, get them. Only problem is that its goin to weigh you down a lot.

 

if i was to do it...where is a site i could get some at?

 

bags dont belong on honda's. get some performance coil overs.

 

I've got air cylinder's on my 95 coupe. I couldn't ask for a better ride quality and the mobility of being able to lift and lower at my demand. Getting in and out of places is so much easier. Plus the weight really isnt' that big of a offset. My car is still just as fast with them. But if you were to get a serious bag system then maybe it would start to weigh you down, because the only thing that is kinda heavy is the tank. I've got a 3 gallon tank with a viar 450 compresor so it fills real fast. A good website is AIM industrys. I like them. or you can order a kit directly through me if you would like...

ive been there...but they dont have them for my year! 88-91 hatch....and im wanting air struts...not bags....

 

it's not necessarily the weight it's how it messes with your suspension geometry, you could loose traction, what you get depends on wether or not you want all show or all go, you could have some of each like above i suppose.

w3rd... im my opinion the only automobile that should be bagged is some like this..



btw.. one day i will own my show truck as well as my hatchie

 

bags..hmmmmmmmmmmm

 

but what about the good ol' 6-4 impalas? those and other classic big cars look SICK with airbags...

but civics.. no thanks man, I'd rather see you blow $2000 on a full TEIN N1 suspension and Mugen bushings and swaybars!

 

So would I

 

Same here. New S10 or Lighting.

 

theres a ricer shop here in Madison, and they got a Integra GsR, which they took the B18 out and swapped in a D15, and put it on bags, and that car is the most awful piece of trash I have ever seen.

 

WTF would they do that for? I knew a guy a work with a 89 Prelude I think on bags, big wing, huge chrome rims, dual exhaust, body kit, etc. Anyone else think that this kind of post belongs in appearance forum?

 

yea but see if i was to get air struts......i would get a b16a also...so i would have show and go! so i think im goin to do it!

 

Go riiiiiiiiiiight ahead

 

i agree totally

 

exactly

 

airbags are for show cars, but if you want them get them. Here a site where i was going to get my bags for my truck that i jsut sold. http://www.airbagit.com

 

here i found a thread from a while ago.... hope it helps

Dont buy from AIM, They have bad customer service, overcharge on shipping and you dont even get the right part most of the time!
