Thanks qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq!!
How much do they usually go for ???

imported_BoOsTd

Tokico HP shocks around 600$ for all four

imported_jj2ii3344

!!!!!!! zex, can you buy me a set? lol
OKOK, I think I should begin with no shock first.

imported_BoOsTd

yah shocks are one of the more expensive upgrades...even if your were to go buy some cheaper midas shocks, your still looking at over 400$

when your stock shocks do blow... if you keep them... you should consider what you'll be doing with the car... and buy shocks accordingly.... like if your just street driving then get koni reds... if your racing the car koni yellows.... cause the yellows are over kill for the street cause you'd never make use of what they can do....

anyways the moral of the story.... you can use your stock shocks... just be ready to change them when they blow.... if you get lucky it wont be for a long time

jus curious can u still get camber wear with performance shocks installed?

imported_BoOsTd

yes, if it is lowered...the lower you go the worse it gets..

imported_Mr.Civic

i have that set up on......R-1 2 piece gen 3 coils on stock shocks, used to ride like stock but once they settle it gave one bouncy ride, but only on hard bumps,but i'm low anyways, i'm sure if it was up abit more it would be less bumpy

I've been riding on stock shocks with my eibach sportlines for over a year, they're still fine, when they blow out then I'll buy some good shocks.

BTW jj2ii3344 if you're looking for a nice drop w/o coils the eibach sportlines are a nice spring to do it with, I've driven in winter and I've never been stuck, and I drove thru all but the worst days last winter.

imported_jj2ii3344

Thanks Greg!
Do you know how much they are for around here??

punkindrublic

pretty much all spring sets are $300 give or take a little

punkindrublic

this is what race springs look like though.... from cayuga thanks to 2 rice 4 u for the pics....



its nice when the grass is touching your front bumper without a lip

imported_Joker

IMO race springs are too low for winter driving unless u want to be a plow

but i have a friend that has h&r race on his teg and has been driving it through winter w=even the worst days and not getting stuck so ............

punkindrublic

i'm not sure what i'm gonna be doing this winter... maybe just throw the stock front springs back on....

punkindrublic

i have a feeling my front end will be to low for snow... maybe i'll buy a beater? but most likely i'll just put the stock springs back on the front

imported_jj2ii3344

Thanks, hehe, I think your car is really too low too rick, hehe.

I like the drop of 1NiceSi civic on the back!!
Does anyone know how much he is dropping??
Thanks!

haha, what you call "settling" is actually your shocks being finished off... Hence the bouncy ride...
