I have my AGX's paired up with H&R sports. Up front, they're set at 3, in the rear, they're set at 2. Everybody will have their own preferences, but this setting is what I like best for everyday street abuse.

If I set the rear shocks stiff (3-4), and the front ones soft (1-2), my Prelude has a tendency to want to oversteer(fishtail). I always set the front ones 1 notch stiffer than whatever the rear ones are set to.

At the drag-strip, I set the rear to full stiff (4), the fronts I play around with. Whatever will give me the best amount of traction with as little wheel hop.

Hope this helps. You're just going to have to play with them, and find what you like best.

I have mine set at 2 front and 3 rear. That adds a slightly stiffer ride in the rear than stock. IMO 2 front and 2 rear rides just like stock. If I'm gonna go play on some back roads I'll knock it up to 3 in the front and 4 in the rear. Having it stiffer in the rear will promote a litter more oversteer I'm lowered on Neuspeed sports.

Other than a Neuspeed strut tower bar and Energy Suspension engine torque bushings, everything else (suspension related) is stock. Haven't had the chance to play with sway bars yet. Something to think about.
