i previously had eibach sportline springs w/ KYB shocks on my 88 civic hatchback.( and it was low and stiff) i have a 95 gsr now and i want to lower it. i still want the stiffness but still be lowered but not slammed but still can tell it is lowered. will the drop be the same? should i get the same suspension for my teg? how about neuspeeds or h &r's? opinions, experiences and pics would be helpful...thank you!!!

I got stock shocks, ITR Springs, and ITR Sway bar. ES Bushings EVERYWHERE. Soon to have Mugen RTA bushings.

 

Stock shocks
H&R Sports

 

Sprint springs
stock shocks and been running on them for over a year. I also got a front camber kit. Youll need one for this drop.

 

stock everything and no rear sway bar

 

itR shocks w/ junk2 coil overs, itR sway bars, Azenis

 

progress springs, ingalls front camber kit, mugen rear strut brace. It's been a good ride for just switching out springs, but I think my shocks are starting to go. (after 21,000 miles) I'll be switching out to tein coilovers sometime in the future. heres a picture of the drop :

Comptech Springs
Bilstein Shocks
ITR rear sway bar

 

H & R Sports Springs
Tokico Blues Shocks
Type R rear sway bar with BSQ kit
Ingalls front camber kit
Spoon front strut tower brace
and a crappy DC sports rear strut tower brace (I picked it up for 25 from a friend, so flame away)

I love my setup but I'm wishing for coilovers, so eventually I'd like Ground Control with Koni Yellows, or if I have the money to blow, Tein coilovers.

 

Tokico sports
AGX KYB
ITR rear sway bar
BSQ kit

 

I have Comptech's/KYB AGX shocks.

On the 1 setting all around it is just like stock. The car rides very stiff on the 3/4 settings, but handles amazingly. The drop it noticeable, but it is not slammed. Definately a huge improvement over stock.

 

KYB AGX
Ground Control Coilovers
ITR rear sway w/BSQ mounting kit

 

GC coilovers on Koni Yellows and a Neuspeed FSB. Love the ride... the fronts are on hard the rears on medium.

I have that set-up on my 99 GSR + the ITR sway and I like it a lot.

This is not really a street setup. The car is mostly used for Solo II compitition but it does see street duty. Unfortunatly I don't have any pics with it on street wheels.
