Indeed. . . the better spring kits will not give you a worse ride. I've got the H&R Sport drop (1.3") and the ride never changed. If anything, your car will handle better and be more predictable when maneuvering. Not only that, but with the Enkeis you have on there, it'll look great! (Just budget for a camber kit when, and if, you decide to drop it. You may need it.)

I think it's you.

That side pic does look a bit. . . warped, but they're real, my good man.

Wow... looking at your ride page is creeping me out. You look almost identical to my ex-girlfriend... and my car is a white EX coupe with blacked out windows. I do have different rims, a different spoiler, and a different grille though. So maybe you're not my stalker afterall.

To the point... car looks awesome (especially for a girl my age!)

Hey everyone! Thanks for all the responses... :-) Yes my name is Cait, which is short for Caitlin... No, thats not a scratch on my rear fender, lol i saw that too... i was using a disposable camera to take the picture and there might have been something on the lense when i took the pic, or when i scanned it there might have been something on the scanner... Yukonart, 1.3" drop doesnt sound too bad.. i almost got a 1.5 but i didnt get that cause i thought my tires'd get tucked... so it might be a future engagement assuming i acquire some extra money to do it, lolz.. also yukon, your ride looks really good!! 2day im going to racing zone in orlando to get some euro tails.... but im not sure if they're gonna look good... i'm gonna sell them on ebay if i dont like them. white 2k2 EX, nope my name isnt crystal..... but i have a twin! her names Courtney though.. and we're fraternal twins, so we don't look alike except in the eyes. Dazed...lol my rims aren't chopped, its the shadows under the fender wells....i paid for those things in cash! lol i love cats!! i have 5 more around here somewherez.... anyways keep replying to my thread everyone!!

Oops sorry didn't see your sig. Tell your sis to get an exhaust. I would look at that car with the big *** wing and laugh after I didn't even see an exhaust.

I haven't seen those rims before. Your car looks really good. A small drop like 1.3 would make it look a lot better. You don't want anything too low, i'm just a tad under 4 inches off the ground and its a pain in the *** not being able to go in some places.

Hi Cait!! I'm in Orlando as well. Racing zone has the EDM tails? If you get them, let me know and how much they were.
Thanks, Adam

LoLz... yeah i bought TYC elegante chrome backed taillights... they come in next Monday or Tuesday they said... they were $205 plus tax... make sure u talk to the Asian guy, Brian, cuz the white guy, Tommy, tried to sell them to me for $230!! He said TYC is the only brand that manufactures LEGAL euro tails... i guess i'm glad i dont look like someones ex.. heh... i had lots of wacky makeup on in the 4th of July pic... lol. Hahaha, the guy who took off the bumper to clear the head lights told me that in order to change just a bulb i'd have to take off the whole bumper... but he was wrong cause i opened the civic manual and it said just go behind the fenderwell... so.. yeah.. that was AFTER i'd taken off the whole bumper... i skipped church to do it, too... lolz. yeah white2k2ex... the pic w/ me all dressed up was a freshman year pic....the best one i could find until i got the new ones developed! i like my hair shorter.... it got sooooo long...

Anyway Cait ur ride looks sweet
as for the drop u should get the tein S TEC springs the drop 1.3/ 1.4 and they are only $139 shipped now too
with these u dont have to bother getting camber kits too cause the drop is not to low. The ride on them is very close to stock not bouncy!!
AND they are the same springs use in the integra in JAPAN SO U know they are hoTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!

Thanks, Cait. As I've mentioned in another couple of threads, I really need to repost my car's profile so people have a better idea of what it really looks like. But the interim compliments are much appreciated.

Seirously. . . the H&R sport drop (1.3") is very subtle, very hospitable to ride with, and will also improve the handling of your car a bit. For $130-$150 it's a mod well-worth considering . . . especially since I know your car looks JUST like mine did when I had those exact wheels. Went 2 months before dropping it. Once I did. . . WOW. Big difference in the overall appearance of the whole car.

DO. . . DO budget for a camber kit, though. You MAY not need it, but if you do, you'll at least be prepared for the expense. A 1.3" drop doesn't sound like much. . .but every car is a little different, and your suspension components may already be close to the borders of spec alignment. . . . so even the most slightest of drops COULD throw you enough out of spec to make it impossible to properly align. Why throw away a perfectly good set of tires in 6 months because your camber adjustment can't be corrected when a kit can make that problem go away? Again, just BUDGET for it. Hopefully you won't need it. I DID need it with mine.

Yeah, ok.... so maybe i'll consider it. just gotta get a job first!! Its funny i know, about the bumper thing... but at least i can do it!!! :-D in case i, by some wacky chance, ever need to do it again. Yukon, is that a factory aero kit u have on there? i love those really non-aggressive kits.... a bunch of 7thgen's meet on E. Colonial in Orlando but I've yet to go down there to check it out... probably will wait til i'm 17 so i can stay out past 11... cause ya know, bein the first one to go home always sucks... heh..

Indeed it is, Cait. . . it's the 2001-02 OEM kit. Easy as cake to install since it comes pre-painted.
