[^SkylinE^]

Thats what i have. And there ok. car handles way better i got them mainly just to get the car lower but in the near futer i want some tein's! Go for it

[...FOOLIO...]

how low did you go tho???is your suspention still okay???

[hkcivic2k2]

I got the same ones too, put them on about a year ago and dropped it all the way down on my 91 Civic hatch. U mite not want to lower them all the way down for awhile after ur install them so they can have a chance to be worked in and sagg a little. I had to raise mine up so they would sagg after I had them installed. Then I dropped it all the way down and got another 1/2in drop from the sagg.

One more thing though, my shocks are stock and now they are leaking. But that was about 3 or 4 months ago that started. Go and get some Teins, KYBs, Tokiko shocks after or b4 ur stock shocks start to go.

PS: its also a pretty "BoUnCy" ride with stock shocks and coilovers!!!:D

WeEeEeEeE:thumbsup:

[...FOOLIO...]

how much is it for Teins or KYBs or Tokiko shocks???
I dont want to have to spend to much money. . .

[topher91]

I onced asked Impressions bout the price for some KYB's, the price they gave me for some decent KYB's for lowerd cars were about 150bux a corner plus bout 45 bux a corner to install.

Its bouncy because your practically riding only on your bump stops so cut them half the size!

[topher91]

I already did......:D

[...FOOLIO...]

how do you cut them and what are they???

[hinggu]

the bump stops are the rubber pieces that prevent your shock from completely bottoming out. Most people would cut this in half when they lower the car to give the shock more travel. You can probably cut it with a utility knife.

okay thx man.....im going to have to give it a try... .

yeah i got the same thing KYB G2's they kick ass:thumbsup:

I don't know about the G2's but the AGX KYB's aren't going to do the job if you want to lower 3". They are only warrantied for a drop of 1.5 (1.75?) or less.
