Check with the affiliates to see if they sell Eibach.

Pro-Kit 1.0"fr/1.0"r part #4051.140

It only lowers 1" which isn't very much considering how high the newer Civics sit. I'd get the Sportline or H&R Sports. They both lower about 1.5".

Thanks for the advice.

But, doesn't the Pro-Kit lower closer to 1.5"

and my buddy did suggest Sportline, but, doesn't that lower the vehicle even more, and don't i have to make more adjustments to other parts.

I'm a noob to this modifying thing

You can check the Eibach website yourself. Once the springs settle, the car will sit a little lower, but not much.

My H&R Sports make my 03 look just right without being too low and I have no problems with anything else.

Why Eibach? I've heard more bad then good about their springs.

"My H&R Sports make my 03 look just right without being too low and I have no problems with anything else."

well, maybe i should reconsider my choice of springs?

Now, i've searched a little for Performance shops in TO, but am having trouble finding authorized dealers for Eibach, or H&R products.

Can anyone recommend a local shop in TO that would carry these prods

that's riding on the h&r sport springs? that actually doesn't look that low... how much fender gap do u think there would be on the h&r race springs? would he have to change to stiffer shocks if he went with the race springs?

Speedtech carries H&R. Thats where I got mine from for $250. The Race are about an inch lower. I didn't want too extreme of a drop just because it's my wife's daily driver and still on the stock shocks. Still rides nice and not too stiff. You should have seen the gap before. I could fit my whole fist between the tire and fender lip.

Hey people, thanks for all the advice.

i ended up purchasing H&R sport springs dropping the car 2".

Also, slapped on a set of Enkei 17" rims with BF Goodrich Scorchers.

Thanks dumbassi, "Why Eibach? I've heard more bad then good about their springs." I think i made a better choice
