Default I have a 91 SI and I want to lower it - What springs or coil overs are best for this car?

I had an 89 Lude a couple years ago (same model) and I had Skunk 2 Adjustables that were made for a 97 Prelude SH but they seemed to work fine on the 89. I've yet to find any springs made specifically for the 91 Lude and I'm not sure what I should get? Someone help? Links? Brands?

i ran eibach pro kits on my 90. there are said to have the right settings so taht you can still get away with running stock struts. the only other option you have for aftermarket struts is tockico blues.
there are a ton of companies that make decent lowering springs for the 3rd generation prelude. neuspeed, h&r are the favorite 2 brands as eibachs are a bit more expensive. if you want a nice setup i would go with tockico blues and nuespeed race (yellow) springs.
for coilovers your best bet is ground control. (althought not a true coilover setup) they come with eibach springs so they are not all bouncy. but they are expensive.

Yes i second the GroundControl coilovers...

If you intend on lowering more than 1" you should also get a camber kit.

I'd like to drop it atleast 2 inches. I found the Neuspeed Yellow Spring kit which is a decent price and it drops it 2.5 in the front and 2 in the back. I'd need shocks also... Where's the site for ground control?

you should just stick to your first idea on the neuspeed race springs. then look around for the cheapest price on a set of tockico blues. i know there was a person selling a set over at preludepower.com a week or so ago.
i have a set of ingalls camber kits i may be selling soon as well.
