bushings.. suspension components at each joint that allow some shock absorption and can be upgraded to polyurethane instead of stock rubber. the upgrade allows for more precise cornering feel and steering response.

dampers maybe? prolly meant shocks. of course they should be changed when installing springs... stock shocks suck.

Hey what's up Owen, we met in Autocrafting...B16 4dr Civic.....

Anyways, EliteIntegra you will need the shocks changed, but what whoever was talking about sounds like a camber kit. If you lower the car too much your camber will be too negative, requiring the kit to correct it. I don't think it's necessary for a 1.7 in drop, but there's always people that seem to think any drop requires a kit.
