Default my suspension

i have made up my mind. i just ordered a skunk2 camber kit and am going to order some ground control coilovers in about 2 weeks. should i get the standard spring rates or what? --these will be going on koni yellows in the future. i just want the adjustability to lower the car no more than 3 inches and raise it up to near stock when i need to. well this is what i want so help me here. oh yea, im going to get some skunk2 or omni power lca's and will also be picking up some sway bars. whats the best sway bars to get? and i know there are diff. types of kits so which ones? thanks, Todd

for your purposes the stock spring rates will be fine. Make sure you order the Ground Controls specifically for the Konis!! GC makes different lower spring perches that are specific to the shocks you're using.

for sway bars, I think the civic type-R is an upgrade for your car. You can also check out Suspension Techniques, Neuspeed, Eibach.

don't trust those photos, they usually just show a generic photo that is not even for the application listed. Mine is silver and red. (I have the bigger one though)

I think it has to do with the mounting points... I only have a rear bar though

ok well im going to keep looking around on some websites and find some different prices/kits. i wont be ordering sway bars for a while though. my main concentration was just the lowering aspect of it and then better suspension upgrades. thanks

that's where I bought my Konis and GC's, they sell the sway bar too.
make sure to read the "Race Setup & Tech Info" page -- good stuff!
