if i want to lower my car what should i do?
 

i only need 4 springs and replace the stock one??
thats it??

thx~

ummm...yeah if you wanna bounce all over the road and have a very poor all around ride which can also be unsafe. you need new shocks as well. if you're driving a 92 civic, your bushings are 99.9% likely gonna be seized on the rear shock unless they've been changed not too long ago which means you'll need new bushings put in. then you will need an alignment after you wait 2 weeks or so for the springs to settle. PLUS, if necessary, you will need a camber kit unless you don't mind changing tires every few months.

you can cut them too :p

lol

dont forget about all the damages incurred while learning how to drive a lowered car and bottoming out :)

Re: if i want to lower my car what should i do?
 

i'm running neuspeed race springs on stock shocks with 285 000 kms on them.... my ride is not bad.... a camber kit would be something i will get soon cause my front tires are not happy right now.... but you really dont need to change your stock shocks... not right away anyways.... some people go years on stock shocks lowered....

this debate is gonna happen again isnt it...lol...

IMO using stock shocks is a gamble, they may blow they may not...but if they do blow, and you dont do your own work your ganna have to pay for the whole installation all over again...and if you cant afford new shocks and they do blow then you are really SOL...riding on blowen shocks is dangerous, frustrateing, and ull look dumb bouncing all over the place, plus the chiropractor bills will add up quick:) just my2cents...

I have coilovers..Id recomend lowering springs...camber kit can be avoided with a proper toe alignment, and tire rotation at every oil change...

hahaha another stock shocks debate?? sure hahaha

i personally did my spring install myself so labour in putting new shocks is just an hour or so of my time.... its just a matter of getting some new shocks now

exactly, i do all my own work also so it wasnt a big deal when my shocks blew a week later...all the bolts were covered in anti seize so the install was a breeze...

I have a 95 civic dx and I want to lower my ride.
My budget is around $250.00, what shock and coilover should I get for the money? Thanks!

jj- get some H&r's u can get a set used for less than that or u can get brand new for 280
cant get shocks though, but with suchj a mild drop u wont need them

Thanks Joker!
Is there any cheaper brand but not ass quality??

PS. Did you get your scanner problem fixed yet Joker?

did you manage to get your LCA/strut bolts out?? i haven't been able to get mine off... but i scored some new LCA's for when shocks get done

nope

get dropzone springs / coilovers and their new SHOCKS!!!

damn I can sell these shocks so easily anyone want?
