The Neuspeed slam the car but they ride pretty good for the drop from what i've been told. I think that the Neuspeeds will give you the smoothest ride for the drop. Are you going to change your shocks ? If not that save up and get them before you change your springs or else it will ride like crap. I would suggest a good shock for teh Neuspeeds, like a Koni, or the KYB AGX, or even a bilstein. Also you will need a camber kit, i would reccomend a ingalls, you'll need about all 3 degrees to get it straight too. Have fun.

Dude, Neuspeed Race springs are good. I had them on my old 91 Civic hatchback. They rode fairly smoothly, exspecally with the stock shocks with them. I am not totally sure on the overall droppage, but I think it is somewhere around 2 inches, maybe 2.5 inches. I never used a camber kit, and my tires did not ware that bad, but you will need a 4 wheel alighnment. That will help a lot, but a camber kit is best. Here is a pic of my old car with the Neuspeed's on.

One more pic... this is a pic of the car now. My friend bought it off me, and put different wheels on it. This pic might have a better view on the height.

my friend bought the eibach pro kit for his crx, and when we were putting em on, he just had the front on and it was like 10mm off the ground, it was mad hot, so we drove around at like 5mph cuz it started bouncing and hitting the ground, it was cool tho.

Neuspeed Race are like a 2.25" drop I belive, and that white Civic doesn't appear to be that now.

Right now I have some Eibach spring on my car thats only a 1.8" drop, but I'm gonna hook up a set of Neuspeed Race springs once summer comes becuase I want more of a drop.

Guy who started this thread - if you decide to get rid of the Neuspeed Race spring that you have you should let me know.. I'm not too far from Hamilton and if the price is right, I'd buy them.

hell ya! great 2 see locals on here, i'm from Grimsby (like 20 mins from Hamilton) also, lowered cars are not too great out in hamilton, when i took my car for a test drive before i bought it we were on a really crappy road and it bounced alot with my Apex springs with a 1.8 inch drop. i'd suggest u get something really good if ur gonna be driving around alot on those horrible hamilton roads hehe

springs

Yeah hamilton roads are brutal, but i want to go low. I think I'm going to sell the neuspeed race and buy some Sprint RX Extremes. Oh and Siz I think I'm just going to bring the springs back to the store where i bought them becuase they are brand new in the box. I paid $360 for them, so I'd atleast want $300.
