Need your help with my suspension.

I have an 89 CRX and I can guarantee that every piece of the suspension on the car right now is stock. Now I am getting a set of 95 GSR rims for it VERY soon. I wanted to lower the car, but I want to setup up everything before I spend 1 cent. Do you think I should get ground control coilovers with koni blues, or should I go with apex i true coil overs? I am not gonna be professional racing or anything. Just some weekend street racing. Nuthin' serious. And I don't want my car bouncin' like crazy. My friend put a set of Skunk2's on his 99 civic Si and we were bouncin all over the place. I am gonna go with swap bars and strut towers bars later, I just want the car lowered PROPERLY first.

get the true coilovers.


Koni doesnt make blues... only reds (oem replacements), and yellows (sport adjustable)

Tokico makes blues, which are oem replacement

yeah like drift said get true coilovers they cost a grip though or you could go with a spring/shock combo and dont forget you may end up needing a camber kit either way you go

Well I went to the Apexi website and looked at the aplication chart for the coilovers they offer, and they don't make a set for my car. So I guess I will have to go the other route after all.

H&R makes probably the best coilover setup for the CRX, I would highly recommend it. This is no chump setup, requires tuning, but one of the best you'll find. But admitadle that is pretty aggressive. You might just do a shock/spring combo.
