Have you ran the shocks at all yet? Just curious of how you like them? The Eibach Sports are going to get you lower unless you do the H&R Race Springs.

i havent bought anything yet, just tryin to get everyones opinion before I spend the money. A guy I know has a 93 hatch with b16, he had kybs with eibachs and said that he rubbed up front cuz of the motor weight so he switched to ground control and kybs. Then again I have another friend with 95 h22 hatch with tokico blues and eibachs. so what do you guys think I should get for 500?

**** the eibachs. The h&r's are stiffer. I have them on my car with the kyb agx's and I love them. A friend of mine has some kyb agx's with an eibach pro kit on his integra. The springs sagged all uneven on one side

Im a fan of the H&R's I have them on my car with the kyb gr-2 struts. There definatly great springs, and easy on your wallet. I bought the springs for my car on ebay brand new for 140 shipped.

thanks guys, are you talkin bout the OE sports or the sports... OE sports dont drop as much, Im lookin for around 1.5 or so like the sports drop. I was reading and some people have said that the sports are too soft. I just get mixed reviews from people. dont know what im gonna do yet H&R sports or Eibach sportlines.. I guess worse comes to worse I could swap out whatever I get for the others

Get the H&R Sports, good drop and solid springs. And cheaper than Eibach's.

I am wondering the same thing, I want a really even ride height all around as well as a decent drop! I think the Sportlines are 1.6" all around but I dunno how even that is? Anyone got any pics of them?

i have H&R sports and kyb agx's on my ej8. love em. both the eibach's and the h n r's are progressive rate, so they won't be real stiff anyway.
