Which are the best Coilovers to buy for a 1992 Honda Civic Si hatch
I'm looking to buy some coilovers for my Hatchback Si and I was wondering if any body have some good luck with some. I'm not looking to spend much more then $300 for then so if someone could help me out by directing me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

Cant really go wrong with a set of Ground Controls. Only warning though, if you are getting coilovers (sleeves) to dump the car alot, be prepared for your stock shocks to blowout on you.

I've looked around a little bit and I think i'm going to go with Skunk. I have a friend that has a 89 Hatch and he just put them on and it looks nice and rides smooth, and they are somewhat cheaper then ground control.

Tein is coming out with a Basic setup....where the strut is not adjustable (Ala WS Dampers from Apex'i). Talk to vtecvoodoo on this board. He is a long standing member and hs good prices on them. Not anywhere close to your 300 limit but not breaking the bank either.

I would say invest in some good shocks like Koni adjustables and get a fairly inexpensive set of coilovers.
Done this before with KYB AGXs @ http://www.coximport.com for $340 shipped and Onsoku coilover conversion kit @ http://www.spoilerdirect.com for $125+shipping, around $480-$500 total cost. The ride was great, it felt like i was driving a Gocart.
That's my two cents.
