[jeffseby]

Ok Right, i got a 93 civic coupe, pics coming soon, and i want to get lowerd about 1.5 IN, so i can eliminate some of that wheel gap, and have stock springs and shocks, what should i buy, also maybe coilovers, WHAT ARE THEY?
Thanks.

depends on how much you wanna spend. anything is possible. you can even pay nothing and cut your stocks, but thatd be stupid. or grab a set of $100 springs from ebay and ride stock shocks. or you can get coils and new shocks. it all depends.

I did not want to spend more than $350 dollars in lowering my car about 1.5 IN. So what good combo of products should I buy. Springs, Shocks, Coilovers??

seriously if you want to drop your car, spend the money and get something worth it, like shocks and coilovers, cause if you buy somthing cheap, your ride will be bumpy and shity, the best brand to me for civic suspension is Skunk2 or Apex....

are those rims jeff?? cuz :apuke: they are just nasty, im not trying to diss but they are just ugly i think, anyway its your car do what ya like :finger:

[emerge]

they look like pep boys hubcaps ;x

i say get springs. you sound like you have a definite height you want so just get some springs and you wont spend more than 200$. i prefer coil overs though ;]

and dont forget about your camber, 1.5 isn't too bad of a drop but you still might be running through tires a little quicker

Hey Stephen, is that 2.5 inche drop too much? hows the ride?

I droped my car 30 mm, and i have 215mm, 17", 45mm tires.. Once in a while the tires simply don't get enough space ... But I guess it depends on where you drive, and how you drive. But there is NO doubt: the car is irrecognizable after dropping it!!

Just do it - Nike!

At www.inlinefour.com you can get Neuspeed springs and KYB-GR-2 shocks for $350 in a combo deal that they have. Thats a good price.

i know this is an old forum, but i did finally get rims!!! thank you all for making fun of my hub caps, what was i thinking? that was what imspired me to get some 17 in EXEL GT-7s , but thanks for the info.

I just droped KYB AGX Adj struts and Ground Control Coilovers in my 95 honda civic hatch.. the car rides like a dream .. i have it droped 2 inches on stock 14's and there is no finger clearence in the wheel wells... i mean this combonation is one of the best.. i got everything off e bay .. KYB AGX for 320 and cround controls for 290.... so i would say dont waist your times wit springs.. i had them on my 92 G20.. didnt drop the car like i wanted it to.. and the ride was still bouncy..so do it right the first time and get some New Struts and Ground Control Coilovers..
