Yes. Go to www.redpepperracing.com

They have several articles in the FAQ I think.
The summary of it is: you can lower the front an inch with this adjustment it has, and the back either cut a coil off or use civic wagon springs. More than an inch you have to buy special parts.

Re: NeW cAr!!!!!

I am getting an exhaust off a site tomaro. And i also plain on buying springs. I came across some lowering springs. I wanted to know if it is possible to lower my car with lowering springs if i have a CRX that has torsion bars in the front and springs in the back. And if so what do i need to do since i plan on doing this myself(that includes the exhaust and springs)

It's pretty easy to lower your car if you only need about a 1" drop. Any more than that and the process gets a little more involved.

What brand of exhaust kit do you plan to get? If you're looking at a Pace Setter system, do yourself a favor and don't get it! They are poor quality and don't fit correctly without some modification. There really isn't any other exhaust kit for this car so unless you can weld, you're probably better off having a muffler shop install a new system. This will probably cost you about $200-$300 depending on the muffler you choose.

I look forward to it. I'm waiting on this girl at work to email pics of mine. When she does, I'll try to get some up to.
