That would work better. Because right now i'm on there site, and they only have green and yellow springs. green are sport and yellow are race. Plus there should be 6 numbers, not 4.

how do i know whats sport and whats race?

how do i know which one is left and right or which one belong in the front or back?


btw 2 of my springs say p and another 2 say r after the h-55.21

spike

the black one show for a 92-95 civic and those are Lowers approx. 0.75 (F) & 0.75 (R)

The taller springs will be the front, and the shorter springs will be the rear.

bengali548

these came off of an ek tho

are you saying the drop is 0.75?

spike

get a pic of them, because all 3 different stiffness of the springs have a different design to them. they do not all look the same. Get me a pic

bengali548

aye aye brb in 5 mins

spike

ok cool

bengali548

kinda sh1tty pics cuz of the rest

spike

Fron the look of them those are for a 92-95 (eg) civic not a EK, and they looking like the SofSport that lowers approx. 0.75 (F) & 0.75 (R) They will still fit your's. The springs from 88-00 are the same for the civic's.

bengali548

so 0.75 drop

spike

looks that way

Why are you looking on eBay? You're probably going to end up paying more than you would if you just picked them up for 160 at password jdm... and you actually get a warranty...

Look...

BLOX REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM LCA 96-00 CIVIC EK RED - (eBay.ca item 270345229153 end time 16-Apr-09 17:32:53 EDT)

142 CDN price, plus 25 US (about 35 CDN shipping), so it's already 177, and you're probably gonna get raped on customs fees, and good luck if you ahve problems with it..

hey does anyone know where i can get the energy suspension bushings (i have the shock bushings) for the rear lower control arms

honda was being a d1ck to me and practically kicked me out and ******** said to go to honda so now im stuck =(

domani2k

Option jdm should have the bushings.

bengali548

okay i dont know what the bushings are called but my mechanic said theyre called energy suspension bushings but energy suspension is a brand

basically i need the bushings that are on the ends of the lower control arms (the ones that break off when being removed (i asked the guy in honda to tell me what theyre called for like 5 mins and the guy kept going "why no one will sell them to you")

bengali548

anyone?

To most car guys if you say "energy suspension" they know you're talking about either the suspension bushings or motor mount inserts, cause thats what energy suspension makes. So if you call up option jdm and ask for energy suspension bushings for your car, you will get the replacement urethane suspension bushings for your suspension (which is what you're talking about).

On to your springs and dampers (shock absorbers): The ride height (amount of "drop") has nothing to do with your dampers. The dampers must be matched to the spring rate. Those springs you got may be stiffer than the stock springs, but they are still probably quite soft (by my standards), which means your stock dampers should be fine. Put the springs in and go for a drive. If you notice it bounces a lot, that means your suspension is under-damped and your stock dampers are too soft. You'll need to pick up a stiffer set or an adjustable set.

Hope that helps. good luck.

btw, those energy suspension bushing will make a huge difference in handling.
