I'm looking for a cheap setup for my 95 Civic. I want about a 2 inch maybe 2.25 inch drop, and I want it to be fairly cheap. Do I need new shocks or can I just use new springs for my existing shocks? Will I need new shocks if I buy coilovers? TIA

 

Stiffer springs will require better dampening (sp?), so most if not all lowering springs/coilovers will need something better than stock shocks. Maybe not right away, but eventually you could blow your stock ones, if you use them with stiffer springs.

 

just go out and buy a grinder! j/k
