Default suspension

I wanna put stock GS-R LCA's with springs and struts in my 93 civic. Has anybody done this and had problems or praise? Also need to find those items in fairly good condition.Thanks

Very simple operation...a nut and bolt job. The springs are a bit stiffer since they have a higher springrate for the 'B' engine. Also, if it's the rear suspension you are talking about, you can add on the rear sway bar with little modification to the chassis mounts.

prepare to have you Civic beigh HIGHER than stock due to the fact that GSR is heavier. It will not look pretty!

How much higher is your ride now that you have teh gs-r lca's on? My car is about lowered about an inch and a half right now riding on 15" rota slipstreams. Am I going to have mad wheel gap or what?
