Suspension Travel? (DC, EK, EP)
Dunno where else I could ask this but, does anyone know how much wheel travel each of these cars has front and rear, from the stock suspension height to full compression?

I remember a friend telling me this but I am 60-70% sure that it is 4" total (2"up and 2"down) for the DC2. If I am wrong someone correct me.

Re: Suspension Travel? (FrostyDC4)
Well, that would mean that an itr would only have 1" of compression where a normal integra would have 2"?
That doesn't seem to reasonable I don't think.
Anyone else?

Re: Suspension Travel? (Tomakit)
I found this while searching
I emailed KYB about what their warrant and if they could determine if your car was lowered >1.5".. I told them I was using H&R Sports (1.75F and 1.50R and 276lbs/ft F/R)
The only way we can determine lowering amount is the statement in the spring venddors catalog or website.
The warranty determination is made at the retailer level. They determine whether the application is correct, whether the product is abused, and whether any damage is caused by incorrect installation or lowering kit damage. If they have any questions, they can always call KYB Technical.
The 1.75" lowering on the front of the Integra is too much. The Integra front suspension travel is 4"; 2" up and 2" down. Lowering 1.75" means that you will be riding on the bumpstops and the piston rod seal will be damaged.

Re: Suspension Travel? (Tomakit)
Sorry to bring this thread back from the dead but I've been trying to find out how much travel the EP3 civic has. Anyone know the answer? I asked over the DC5/EP3 forum and got nothing so far. Thanks!

this must be bs, if you jack up the car, or if you've seen a stock integra autox, you can clearly see that the 'down' (by this the car raised and the wheel pushed down) is MUCH more than just 2 inches. More like 7-10 inches... haha i guess that also includes the preloaded weight of the vehicle too.
