Do a search. This has been talked about alot on these forums.

When you say change your suspension what do you want? Do you want it lower, better than stock, what?

A good setup could be eibach pro-kits + koni reds. A bit lower, but not too stiff plus good shocks.

depends on how much u are willing to spend as well. i've heard of people that are happy with KYG shocks + King springs combo, which is a budget way of doing it. Are you wanting to do coilovers? They can be quite pricey, but it depends which brand u want and what type (adjustable or not).

but quite frankly, if there's nothing wrong with your shockies now, then jus get it lowered and keep the shockies for now as that's what i've done to my accord. i've had it for 4yrs now lowered on Kings with only 1 shocky that i had to get reconditioned. The shocks of the 95 Accords are very good and durable, IMO.

also depends on how low u want your car. for my 94 accord i for the combination of KYB shocks and king spirings sitting on 18s..very happy with it... but was thinking of getting D2 coilovers so i can lower it abit more.

Skunk2's are good for these.

I had ridden in one that had Skunk2's put in, wasn't to hard and not to soft.

But my question is what is your budget?

If your referning to my ride, its actually skunk2 shocks with Neuspeed springs. All up cost me around $800 ($500 shocks & $300 springs) but thats during the strong USD.

Randa, you didnt mention how low you want to go. As a general thumb of rule the lower you go the harsher the ride will be. Tyre profile will also effect ride quality.

for that amount of price you best bet is to just change the springs. I'm using neuspeed sport springs which is 1.75" front and 1.5" rear and i'm on 15"rims. I'm sure it has settle now and it sit a bit lower. I wouldnt going anything lower than 2" with a stock suspension.
If your interested i can pm you where i purchase mine.

i'll send you a pm of the place i bought my springs. as for k-mac and pedders i'm not sure about them. only thing that i can say for k-mac is that you can ask them to design custom heights and spring rate.
