OK... I have my civic (6th gen coupe) and i have intake and exhaust... But I am saving up and all I want to do is A LOT of suspension first...

If you could help... i would like to know what you guys suggest (from experience/word of mouth, and so on) I want to know what i should do first... what brands are the best, and what all is needed to function properly...

Thank you everyone for your help!

 

Cheap setup but good quality: Ground Control coilovers and Tokico shocks

 

do i need a camber kit?

 

Most likely, yes. If you're going to drop the car enough to fill in the wheel gap, you will need a camber kit. You can get away with an actual kit like Ingalls for the front and some washers and extended bolts for the rear.

 

No nesscallry, are you going to be changeing your camber settings? Most modern tires can handel up to -2 degress of camaber without any abnomral wear. Incoorect Toe settings are more to blame for abnormal tire wear then camber. On my Del Sol I run around -2 up front and -1.75 of camber in the back and my tires are fine, I have been on these tires for almost 2 years and they are wearing pretty evenly with that setup. So be sure to get and aligment after you get your suspension and unless you are going to be chaing your camber a lot or have an extreme drop a camber kit may not be nessciary.

 

I agree, after I got my coilovers, I dropped to pretty much fill the gap. I went to get the alignment, and everything was able to fall into spec without need for a camber kit. Like Solracer said, toe is probably worse.

Camber and toe...maybe one of these days my retarded self will learn the difference.

Thanks for correcting me . It has been my experience however, that the majority of Honda drivers who lower their car need a camber kit. I guess it's because I've known too many ricers who try to "slam" their car.
