This depends on what setup you would like to go with... I got my Koni/GC setup through RedShift Motorsports and spent about $880 but i also got extended front top hats and a stiffer spring rate. If you would like to start there you can but you would have to email them first letting them know you're interested and what kind of civic you have (you know all the details they would ask anyways). I personally started on a website called ProCivic.com, while they don't sell the Koni/GC setup they do have different options as far suspension goes and they have great customer service should you ever have questions or issues. I have also heard that THMotorsports is a great place to go for the Koni/GC combo as well but have never had any personal experience with them. Hope this helps get you in the right direction!

For me it was around $880 total but i also AutoX mine, she's my DD/weekend warrior. Your setup will prolly be a little cheaper than mine if you want it just just for a DD'er. I think a good spring rate would be the 300's for front and rear. Now if your car is gonna be a weekend warrior like mine is you can go a little stiffer, i run a 450f/500r and have about a 2 finger gap between my front tire and fender (it's about the same in the rear).

If that's the case I'd go with a soft/semi-soft rate for your setup. I think a 350 front and rear would be comfortable for a DD without being too stiff
