sold my 03 tib and baught a.....

well i traded my tib today. i got an awesome deal on a silver SIR.

i decided to go back to a honda because i needed some extra cash for school. heres a pic of my new ride, i did a chop to look lowered, which i'll be doing the following day of the pick up.

actually if someone can give me an approximate price of how much it will cost me to lower it with coilovers and shocks including installation just so i can get an idea that would be great.

anyways i'm looking forward to comming back to the meets.

First of all congratulations....HONDA FOR LIFE!!!!

As for dropping it, don't get coilovers unless they are Tein or Skunk2.

I would suggest H&R springs...$280 a set (tax in)...as for shocks, they will run you between $550-1000 depending on the brand.

Congrats on the purchase, I'm sure you'll be very happy with the Civic. Was wondering how you liked the Tib though before you gave it up?

If you get full coil overs get JICs, Teins just suck imo. For springs get Neuspeed, stiffer then H&R. KYB AGXs will run around $500-700 and Koni Yellows are around and over $1000 depending on your connections.

Shot me a pm. I can get you a good deal on JICs if you want full coil overs.

they're not so much as garbage, but they've been waaaay overhyped

like the other people said, JIC is a good brand, along with a few others are... in no particular order...

Zeal
Buddy Club
Ohlins
H&R
HKS
Cusco
Koni
......and I can't remember anymore hahah
