That's not too bad of a price for a gsr, but I will buy anything off craigslist or people I know in my area before I'd buy jdm, just too expensive. I'd love to go b16 or gsr, but I figure why have a stock b16/b18c with bolts on when I could ahve a built non vtec that's just as fast, and makes kids that have vtec cry when they lose. And I love a car that looks good, but you have to look good and go fast at the same time.

You just have to slow down completely to go over speed bumps or go at an angle, when you drop that low you know you are going to rub in driveways and stuff, but you trade the impracticality for the looks and performance. You just deal with it.

This thread is so full of dumb its hard to read. If you really think $300 for shocks is too expensive I don't think you need to be lowering your car at all. Your going to end up with a ride that sucks for DD and then when you break something from scraping you'll have to spend more money. Just do it right the first time and get some coilovers. The adjustability is worth it for winter and summer driving.

And you think If I bought Skunk2 Springs and Struts it would be a bad ride? Lol give me a break.

I am only 22, so its not like I don't know what its like being a student and trying to fund other things. Just read some reviews on the Skunk2 setup. I read a lot about them being a terrible ride for a DD. Then once I started going to meets and actually rode in cars and talked to people who had them, I wouldn't recommend them. Suspension is something that you really are going to get what you pay for. Like I said before, my current Civic came with Nuespeed Springs and Tokico HPs on it and it wasnt too bad. But it doesn't even compare to something like GC and Koni, D2s, or Ksports. About $800 will set you up nicely.
