Hatch = less weight, so you wouldn't need as aggresive spring rates as you might want with a coupe. I have Tein coilovers on my '00 Civic coupe and i LOVE them! I have the "SS" (Super Street) model which I'd say would be your best bet. When tuned to the stiffest setting, they are quite bouncy, but then when put to the softest, they almost feel like stock. You could go with the HA's, they are about $100-$150 more, and the only difference really is that they have higher/stiffer spring rates which just makes your ride feel that much firmer. Have you gotten any prices on them, and did you have somewhere in mind to get them from? I know there's a place on www.groupbuycenter.com that's selling Tein and can send you the SS model for about $925 shipped to most places in the US.
