that only drop the car about 3/4", I'm sick and tired of a harsh ride and scrapping the exhaust everywhere.
I'm gonna replace the struts while I'm at it, probably go w/ some KYB GR2's. I've never adjusted my adjustables so I just want regulars.
Any recommendations on what springs/struts would be great! Also if you can think of anything else for me to do while i'm changing this stuff out let me know.

NEUSPEED SofSport's look like what i'm looking for, maybe I'll get those.

i blew the kyb's in 1 month too. i think the soft sports and while you are at it i reccomend a polyurethane bushing set. yoiu won't belive the improvement in handling/feel of the car those bushings will make

i've had kyb agx's on my car for years now w/ over a 2" drop, I've never had a problem. i'll keep that in mind though, i was thinking about the Koni reds anyway but this drop is only going to be 3/4".
i'm not to keen on the idea of a poly bushing set, if I was gonna go all out on the suspension i'd consider it. but i just want something that drives nice and that is a little lower than stock. I'm tired of a stiff ride. I'd like to replace my old bushings w/ OEM, is there a kit you can buy or do i have to order them all seperatly?

you will have to order them all separately. on the accord which is back to stock the ride is pretty firm, yet not taking your back out of alignament. if you ever drove a bmw you will know what i am talking about. as for the bushings you need to order each and everyone of them separate if you go with the oem kit

Neuspeed makes some nice stuff.
If I were in the market for some soft lowering springs Id probably get the tein h-techs. WAY too pricey for what they are (probably) but there are definately times when I wish my ride was softer.

damned, thats a pain. do the poly's transmit more vibes to the cabin at all?

yeah i was looking at those too, they cost almost the same as neuspeeds. then there's H&R OE sport springs. damned decisions.

i wouldn;t say they do. the feel a bit different, and i am using them on an accord not a civic. I will have to install them on my integra too and let you know then.
