Looks like there is conlict of interest over this

Who can say FOR SURE what the drop is on these springs!?!? make my day pleeez

 

I'd definately say closer to 1.7/1.9ish because my car is in between my brother's 2.5 inch drop and my friend's 1.5. We've all got Civic hatches and I've got Tein S-techs on KYB AGX's.

 

sounds almost cut and dry...anyone else???

 

for a 92-95 its 1.8/1.7 96-00 is 1.9/1.7

 

can we get some pics on cars here

 

thanx for specifying the tears.......ya pics would be great

 

This is a shitty pic to display what you're asking for, but regardless...Mine is the red hatch, B19civichb is the indigo one. He's lowered 1.5 all around and mine's on Tein S-Techs. This is right after the install, before they settled much, but I can tell you that, appearance wise, you'll be pleased.

 

great thanx man!!

 

1.9 front 1.7 rear .... on my 99 si

Yeah, it's stock...on Chevrolet trucks. It's Chevrolet Indigo Blue Pearl and no, it's not stock on any Honda you've ever seen. Neither is the engine that's in it .

 

How do the Tein springs ride ? Stiff, soft, bouncy ? What shocks is everyone using ?

They ride rather comfortably for a performance spring and the stiffness of the ride depends largely on the shocks you buy to go along with them. I currently run KYB AGX adjustables on all four corners with the fronts at 1 (softest) and the rears at 4 (stiffest), allowing me to achieve better ballance in turns, but stiffining up the rear considerably. Going over speed bumps is like nothing to the front, but slightly jarring when the rear tires go over.

Hope that helps. I've had experience with many, many aftermarket shocks (Koni, Toxic, KYB, Tein, etc.) and I must say that, short of Tein full coilovers, the KYB AGX's are better than any others I've ridden or driven on. The Koni Yellows suck, in my opinion, and their adjustability mechanism is the most poorly designed I've yet encountered. My personal opinion is to stay away from them.

 

ne one experience the tiens with stock struts???

 

Any more pics of the Indigo blue hatch??

 

Wheres the best place to get the KYB AGX's from ? Also best plae for the Tein springs ? Ebay ?

 

my friend has them in his ek hatch with stock shocks. the ride is almost like factory just a tat firmer but its quite bouncy caz the shocks not made for that.

His car with the valve cover off so we could lash his valves and set his timing:



That's all I have on We-Todd right now, so deal.

Nice car man.

Just out of curiousity, are you rocking a camber kit?

 

No i am not... i plan on keeping it that way because i plan to road race soon here.....will help the handling a bit....but eventually i will install a kit so i can have further adjustability....thanks for the compliments...
