neuspeed race or sports?

before you flame me i did do some searching. i read that neuspeed race give you problems with camber, blown shocks and scraping , i love the ride height but hate all of it's drawbacks. neuspeed sports give less of these drawbacks but i hate the ride height. i'm confused on which i should choose. i'm willing to buy a camber kit and kyb regular gas shocks. which would you choose for a daily driven civic ? thanks

sports if you have a daily driver like me. Have had them for a few months now and don't have problems with rubbing/scraping. Also, haven't blown any struts yet either...

[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] i thought sports made it look like it was'nt even dropped. hey madmike i think it looks better with hub caps (just a suggestion). also do you need a camber kit for neuspeed sport, i had a eibach prokit on my 1990 civic before and that cambered out my tires [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG]

all those places you mentioned are expensive. ohc has eibachs for 180 tho. cheapest i've seen anywhere.
for the neuspeeds, go here... Car Tunerz.

the site says 145 but when i called he said 150. n i told him that i could get them online for 140 shipped n he said he could match it. but then he brought up, "thats gunna be with tax" so i busted out with, "what?? make it out the door" n he said fine. its kinda far from you tho. maybe like a 20-30 min drive. oh n they said they could get it the next day you order it...

Neuspeed Race Springs are way too low! I put some on my car and it bottoms out like crazy. I called Neuspeed to complain and they sent me some sports in the mail to try to fix it. They suck too, it's still bottoming out and I'm scared I'm going to blow my Koni's. They are supposed to be getting with Honda to get a drwaing of the strut to see where they went wrong. I wouldn't buy any Neuspeed Springs, go with Sprint or Ground-Control Coilovers. I'll keep you guys posted on how they treat me from a customer service standpoint. They seem eager to get it right to save their name, but I've read alot of bad things about their springs in these forums...Sagging, being too low, bouncing, et.

Outkast27 - I think you have a problem unique to your car man. Lots of 2K1 owners run Neuspeed Sports springs with no problems whatsoever, drop looks excellent and is no where near too low. Sounds like you have something else going on there.
