Wats up, i have a 95 civic ex coupe this is my 3rd car my first was a 95 civic sedan andd an old lady slammed into my front end and wrecked my car, then i had a 92 240sx and i had i little run in with a tree so you can guess what happened with that one, and know i have a 95 ex coupe and i just have some basic things done to it so far. I have the AEM intake, magnecor competition spark plug wires, ngk plugs, tein lowering springs, 17" lite 5 rims, skunk 2 front and rear camber kit, spoon headers, hi flow cat, 2.5 custom exhaust, skunk 2 fields gas air and vtec controller, mugen lip, jdm corners, strut bar, full mtx sound system, pioneer head unit, and thats it for know unless im forgetting something. I have the sohc vtec motor "D16z6" motor in it and i plan on keeping it and building it up to see what i can get out of it, becuase i have some buddys that have hatches with the same motor an they have a slite more work done to their cars and plus a hatch is alot more lite than a coupe is and their killing b16 and gsr, so if i put some work on the internals of than motor im pritty sure i can get alot out of it due to the fact that it is the only 1.6 sohc, and the b16, and the b18 are also 1.6, and plus i want to do somrthing different because i could simply go get a b18 Ls block and a b16 head an ill have a baby type r, but i rather take my little motor and build that sucker and hopefully get some good outcomes.

To my knowledge the springs for drivers side and passenger side are different lengths. The longer spring (usually barley noticeable) goes on the drivers side because most of the time there is only one person in your car, and it needs to handle more weight. Maybe you put the drivers side one on your passenger side, or maybe your springs are the exact same and arent diff. lengths.
