I work for AHM and i was wondering if anyone has ridden in a HFP civic and if it is worth it to buy the performance suspension kit? i can get the suspension kit without the wheels, tires, aero, shiftknob, etc. i was wondering at what price it stops being worth it?

it comes with springs and shocks and badges.

Depend on the price and how much drop you want. The suspension is design for the civic and it should handle well + honda will give you warranty for them.

i want a minimum drop and i like honda parts, i was gonna get the eibach prokit, but this honda kit comes with shocks and springs for a low price. i also like the fact that it wont void my suspension warranty, i think.

uh...you posted in the other thread too! No it won't void your warrenty. You can't do anything useful with that suspension like race. It just a little tiny drop. If you have the cash and want to retain your warrenty then go for it. But I wouldn't pay 2 grand for it. I wouldn't pay more than $500 bucks for it. But hey that is me. I don't care about having a 1" drop with very weak spring rates, because it doesn't do anything.

Since you work for AHM, I say buy it and tell us how is...

I'm curious on why it comes with different struts and shocks(are they shorter and/or stiffer?).

YOur obviously do not have any experience with these. Tiny little drop? weak spring rates? cant do anything useful?? your wrong on all your assumptions.




These are ****ing Awesome!! I have used these for 6 months, no problems

1. the whole strut assembly is about 3/4" shorter than stock.
2. Spring rates are VERY MUCH increased over stock (you dont thing they would have FACTORY PERFORMANCE withno increase in stock spring rates/strut valving......no)
3. I have used 4 differnt suspension setups (soon to be 5) and this offers a better handling ride than Eibach prokit, with stock struts, which also provided the smoothest ride compared to stock.

I bought mine off a member of this site for 450$, i just wish i had some ajustability height wise.
i would highly recommend these if you are looking for a small reliable drop.
Here is a pic of the "tiny drop"

I don't have any experience with them but from what was said before, they only drop 1". For me that isn't enough. Again, I race, so something without adjustability isn't worth getting. But, i was just going on from what was said about the kit before. For me, it is not worth spending the cash unless you can get it used or cheap. For $450, i would have bought it too if I just wanted a small drop. What size are those rims and tires though?

How much is it from the factory anyway?

i don't know if you can get just the suspension package or if you have to get the whole kit. I think he works for Honda so he can just get the suspension. The whole thing is around $4k i think, wheels, body kit, suspension, badges, shift ****, etc.

I would not get it, I would go for some thing with adjustability.

How much are you going to pay? Curious...

i cant say for job reasons, but i can say it rivals prices of buying shocks and springs both from aftermarket companies that give the same drop and rates

i've been looking at the HFP package but can't seem to get much from the local dealers... Any recommendations for a dealership in Oregon that will know not only what I'm talking about, but can actually tell me a little more about it? Thx.
