get the 1.4 or the eibach pro-kit. its 1.0 all around prolly 1.4 after it settles. either one you will be happy with.

I just got h&r sports around three weeks ago for my 03 civic coupe and got it installed at the honda dealership. I drive around 80 miles a day(commuting and visitng friends). The ride is a little harsher than stock, worse when hitting potholes and stuff but nothing too annoying or unbearable. But overall, i really like it, in fact, i talked my friend with a rsx into buying them. I think you should just stay with the sport. It drops more than 1.3, more like a 1.5. And yea, i didnt get a camber kit yet and the honda technicain said most likely i wouldnt even need it and my shocks should last for 40 to 50 k since its not slammed.
At last, if you want them try www.adventon.com great prices and great service.
Hope this helps

Mike

I have H&R Sports on stock shocks and stock size wheels with Bridgestone RE910 Potenza tires for about 10000km now and the springs are great they look lower after the install but not slammed, with your skirt package it should look even lower. Ride is good and harsh on rough roads. The handling is definitely much better, wet grip and even in snow and ice the car feels more stable. The car doesnt just perform better and look better it is actually safer now with these springs.
