Default Help!!!!!!!

Alright i am going to swap a b16a in my 96 honda ex coupe and i know its 100 pounds more then my orginal engine. The question is do i need to get better shocks and struts to allow for the extra 100 pounds? And if so what kind would be the best? And my car cant be to low the streets where i live suck b@lls so it has to be kind of high but not to high. LOL Thanks

an extra 100lbs is not very much, you don't need to change you suspension to support it. Just think about how much you weight and passengers weight...

92-00 is not a complete gen. listing for Integras. I think you meant to say 94-01 Integras.
