Which coilovers are better?
Which coilovers are better guys? I am in the market and i just wanted an opinion on which ones you all think are the best coilovers to get. I heard that Skunk2 or Ground Control were the better choices. But, if you have an opinion on a different one i would like to know. thanks.

Rep Power: 0 Stay away from those OBX Kits....Waste of time and money.....Spend a few more bucks and get the Ground Controls
I work @ a Honda Dealership and we tried the OBX.....CRAP!!!! We took them out and put Ground Controls in....No slapping noise with them
trust me .....spend the few extra bucks[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 Tien is working on a SuperStreet coilover system for 2k1 Civics. They are 16 way adjustable not 5 like most and come with everything.
Tien also has a in dash system that alows you to adjust your suspension from inside the car for only like $300.
SS Coilovers are like $1200 unless you get a hook up!

Rep Power: 0 the rear is always higher...your just droping it the same on both ends....try like 4 in the rear and 3 in the front (if you can even do that, I'm not sure never had coilovers so I don't kno...just seemed logical) or add something hugh to your trunk.
