well i think ive decided to put my shocks and springs on myself. i found alot of info on http://www.jdmfan.com/technical/suspension/eibach_springs/ but this is for a 96+ civic. will averything be the same on my 93? also it says something about triming the bumpstop. is this the tan looking peice in the pictures. and witch end is the top that i will need to trim. also if you have any tips and tricks not mentioned in the above site i would love to hear them.

I think a Helms manual is the ultimate weapon ... What I did with my bumpstops was i cut them in half ... Used the top peice where it is wider ... Everything is straight forward ... And be prepared to buy a new rear bushing because both times I've changed coilovers they were seized ... The instructions you posted are pretty good ...

You can get bushings from Honda ... just make sure you need them first before you buy them ... I'm just suggesting this because the first time I put my coilovers I had a bushing replaced ... Not even a year later I have another bushing seized ...
