i believe 92-00 will work but i would only use it if it says it will work. i would lurk around a few civic forums. People like to use the integra stuff too so you might want to look into that as well.

what are you trying to achieve? a drop? increase in performance? auto-x?

Im trying to accomplish a nice 2.5 inch drop, Its just when i look it up some say 92-95 others say 92-00 and its confusing me and I dont want to buy the wrong thing. And the sellers arent answering my damn questions.


Edit: I cant stand the civic forums ive found.... bunch of damn ricers sipping on hator-ade

I owned a 95 for some years with springs. You can interchange the EG/EJ for EK springs but the Struts I believe are a little different. For a 2.5" drop you could try Neuspeed Race Springs. I believe that is pretty close to there drop. I had the Neuspeed Sport springs which was a 1.8F-1.6R drop. I believe the Race are 2.25F-2.5R, but don't quote me on that. Not many with a drop that low. And as always try Ground Control Coilovers for something that low of a drop.

I like to go to www.Hona-tech.com as a source of info but can't stand the arrogance over there. I'm from the Atlanta area so I also check out www.importatlanta.com. Most of the Honda info normally comes from Honda-Tech anyway so just go direct to the source. I will caution you though. Honda-tech members will say that there board is for performance and not so much cosmetics, but you should be able to search on google for Springs and Honda Tech.
I really miss my Civic.

My boy has the H and R's but i couldnt find them with the drop i wanted, So i got a brand called DROPZONE. I heard they ride stiff, I didnt get to order shocks, but will need to in the future and also probably a camber kit too...

How bad is it to install springs on the stock suspension??? Ive gone for rides in a lot of them and they seemed fine...

For springs i'd recommend H&R or Eibach. For shocks i'd say go with Tokiko blues or Tokiko whites [illuminas], KYB AGX, or of course Koni.
