The only info I could come up with via google...

"Approved by the KBA (German Government Motor Vehicle Authority). Certified by Germany's TUV CERT and employs first rate testing equipment to ensure compliance to regulations"....

So KBA is some sort of like an ASA testing standard?

Now the above may have absolutely nothing to do with those springs, but you might check with a BMW shop to see about them?

 

Fug... Call a H&R dealer already.

"H&R Stage 2 Sport Springs- When you want to get serious, H&R Sport Springs are the hot setup. They lower your machine an average of 1.5 - 1.75 inches (depending on make and model) for improved handling, better aerodynamics and a simply outrageous look. All with a controlled, yet comfortable ride (about 25-30% stiffer than stock)."

#29863 for Civic, Civic Si (not 4 door) 1.8" front drop; 1.6" rear drop

 

thanks alot for trying but man i really want to find out who really makes this ****.

 

Looks like he just told you... the model number of the springs he just mentioned above matches the number on your springs.

 

The other numbers might be read. 90 424 as April 24, 1990. Not postive but I think mine start with 98 and I got them in 2000. Here is there website.

WOW YOU ARE GOOD.

so can anyone tell me what is the stock spring rate for the 93 civic hatch si i need to fiure out from there how much 25-30 percent

 

Why don't you pick up the phone and talk directly with H&R? I bet you $100 they can tell you rates and anything else you want to know. Sheesh.

 

i did but he told me the exact same thing you did. please if you are going to get **** don't answer

You're right! My bad... The guy I talked to said that they don't disclose rate on their "street" springs but will disclose rate on their race line. Whatever.

So, take your springs down to a shock shop and have them measure them on a compression machine and you'll have your answer.

 

Dude, That's like the funniest thing I have ever heard. Your springs are on backwards!

ha is the German abbreviation for Hintenachshule = REAR AXLE.
va is German abbreviation for FRONT AXLE.

Swap the springs front to rear NOW, as in immediately. If you persist in driving like this, you'll end up with a pile of twisted crap in your driveway.

 

thanks bulldog i know you are only trying to help i completely understand how you feel.

so that really is what happened. dumb *** previous owner. had then on backwards.ahhah wonder why i had so much pushing in the front. haha. thanks


OH CAN ANYONE CONFIRM THIS OR I AM GONNA HAVE TO CALL UP H&R TOMOORROW
