Question Lowering Question? HELP!

First off, I would like to say thanks. I have posted a couple of questions in the suspension forum and I have got great answers to my questions.

I believe the last question I have is... I'm going to install Neuspeed Race springs in my civic (Approx 2.25 drop in the front and 2 in the rear!) Anyone out there with this kind of drop, How long have your stock shocks lasted with this kind of drop?

Thanks in advance!

Rob

Part II to the question is...Does anyone out there know who makes neuspeed springs now? I believe that H&R use to but not anymore!

i say to go with the H&R 1.3 drop. not much of a drop, but terrific driving performance, but if you want it just for looks then go for the 2" drop

for a year hun? still no probs....sweet!

I've decided to go with the 2 inch drop cause I don't want to look at my car after lowering it and decide that it's not low enough!

i heard the neuspeed race has a little bumpy/rough ride since it's lowered 2.25". it should get better once you get new shocks though

This a question no one can answer. Sure that one guys lasted a year, yours might only last 2 weeks. It depends on different factors.
NEuspeed makes their own springs and so does HR, what is the point of that last question?
