What is everyones suspension setups and how do you like them? Looking into building my 2000 Honda Civic SI to handle the track/road better cause I am building the motor for daily driver and track. Thanks

 

i have a daily driven EF. my susp. set up is for street/track use.
KYB AGX Adjustable shocks and Omni Power slip on coilovers (go ahead and flame )

I'm happy with the setup. Especially happy with the price, got everything for less than 500.

 

Cool man, I haven't looked into any of the stuff you have. But if it works good for you then its worth lookin into. Thanks for your input.

 

00 gsr daily driver / autox / hpde. Can't comment on the suspension at the track, just installed it, but went with Koni/GC w/ 400/400 springs. Its stiff for the street, but doable.

I was looking into that same setup actually. The stiffness aint a big deal cause I am goin to have it a daily driver but I guess u could consider it a semi daily driver cause I have 2 vechiles and with all the work I am doing I wont drive it everyday of the week but I will drive it alot it wont just be parked. What Koni Shocks did you go with? I was lookin into Koni Yellow Shocks. Thanks for the post

 

hmm...i actually dont think that its that stiff of a ride...my setup is
koni/gc (yellows)
450f/400r
usdm rear Type R sway bar
ingalls camber kit upfront
washer trick in the back

i think that this setup is perfect for the street (spring wise) atleast thats how i feel...i'm acutally going to change the rear springs for some 550lbs/in...hope that helps you a lil more...

 

Why do you wanna stiff up your rear springs more? But I was lookin into Koni Yellow, Ground Control, was tryin to deside on what chamber kit, strut bars, etc. I should go with.

where can I find some of that? Thanks

 

Under the search function.

And as for 550 rear, my setup was 430fr/550rr and let me tell you it was a blast around corners. Although, it does get bumpy. Now i'm on 430/330. The ride is better but on corners, it was understeer heaven. You win some, you lose some.
I suggest anything under 400 for street use. Anything above is just too stiff for me.

 

i have skunk2 springs and tokico struts... i dont even think the front springs are the right ones though. i had to take out the rubber piece from the top strut bar part to fit the spring in it

Well this car aint goin to be driven a whole lot. So the stiffness aint goin to bother me that day, cause if it does I can park it and drive my other vechile lol. So you all suggest 400 to 430 front and 500 to 550 in the rear?

 

92 Prelude Koni Yellows with Neuspeed Race Springs. It rides a little stiff but its doable.

 

I see alot of people are going with Koni Yellow so I made a good choice chosing them. But now I just need help with springs, and strut bars etc.

 

koni yellows and ground controls is a good setup; very diverse under all driving situations.

im not that much into autox and track driving. my bars are pretty much just visual over function. i have a benen lower tie bar, skunk2 front upper, and em racing rear upper strut bar.

 

So how can you tell about what lb the springs are? Cause on most websites when I see Ground Control Adjustable Springs it dont say anything about if it 400lbs. or 500lbs. or whatever. How can I tell?

 

Its better if you just give them a call. My 550 lb spring is 6.5 inches and you can't find 6.5 inches on the website anywhere.

Here's how you read the numbers:
0700.250.0325
0700= 7 inches
250= 2.5 ID
0325= 325 lbs
