Civic Suspension?
 
I have tein lowering springs with tokiko blue struts and my struts are blown and i want to get new suspension just wondering if i should get kyb struts and just use my tein springs or should i buy coilover suspension by drop zone?
here are couple links to the suspension. let me know which setup is better and i am not tracking the car or anything, just daily driver.

if the springs are fine don't bother changing them. replace the struts with whatever fits your budget. GR2's are pretty close to a factory replacement. i'd atleast upgrade to the AGX

just do the full coilover swap it will pay off in the long run when you sell.

are you just talking about the spring and adjustable collars? If you are i am not a fan of generic spring rate coils as they are all terrible.

just go cheap, the springs are fine just get new shocks, you can get kyb's fron car quest cheap

i agree on just keeping the tein springs and fixing the issue at hand which is the shocks.

tegboi 07-21-2007 02:08 AM

yea i will but can you guys tell me some shops where i can pick up struts for a decent price?

movistardave 07-21-2007 11:44 AM

car quest, u.a.p napa, parts source, i got kyb's for my cavalier for like $45 ea.

are all your shocks blown? if not just repalce the front then when you have more $$$ then the back.

tegboi 08-03-2007 12:52 AM

for kyb's partsource told me 200+tax each.. also what do you guys think of eibach dampers, or skunk 2 struts?

IntegraMark 08-03-2007 05:11 AM

depends on your budget. if you only gonna sell the car later and you don't wanna spend alot of money fixing it, just get the economy ones from partsource.

tegboi 08-03-2007 11:09 AM

yah i just want to fix it for now and later sell the car but even the economy ones are 100 a piece and i can get the skunk 2 or eibach's for 350 or the kyb agx for 450 so i think to upgrade to one those would better
