depends how old the shocks are and if there oem if your wanting a good setup u can get some sleeves on some good shocks or just get a set of coilovers

OEM shocks, I'm assuming they haven't been replaced.
Searched around a bit more, now thinking Ground Control kit with Tokico Illumina's/Koni Yellows.
Quite expensive but from what I've read, it's the best setup for street cars.
Anyone had any experience with these?
I'm running koni's. have been very hapy so far.. good balance between dealing with crap roads and firm controlled ride..
I went with the ground control/Koni yellow combo back in the day and I was pretty impressed. You can also customize your spring rate when you order, however I went off the shelf (can't remember the specs). Wasnt rough but wasnt smooth either... Obviously depends on height, wheel size etc.
Some pics below.... Strongly suggest you don't go with standard shocks you will regret it.

Any problems with scraping at that height FR33K? That's essentially the height I'm after.
Spring rate I'm undecided, I had a 31 with Tien coilovers, 10kg F and 8kg R, way too solid for a daily.
I think stock rates are 8 and 6? From ebay for everything it will be just under a grand so I want to make sure its the right choice lol.
The front probably scrubbed a little when turning only because I didn't remove the plastic lining under the guard.
Oh yeh I did also have a full camber kit
had my teg on the dyno last week guys 6psi made 200whp
its been a while since i was active on here,

a few of you may know the story behind it and the reason for the extremely long delay..
honestly im over it, took to long to get it completed, and time to buy a house.
car turns on, only drove it home from the tuner and is very quick.
heres what it has....
b20/b16 vtec motor (new gaskets top to bottom, timing belt, seals, waterpump, everything changed) 30000kms put on it my eg civic..
power will not be revealed
it did run mid 13's 3/3 tho in my eg civic with full street trim n street tyres..
custom cable gearbox with ek9 and dc2r internals with 4.7 final drive
Ry-wire mil spec harness convert from obd0 - obd1
HONDATA s200 tuned
exedy sports organic clutch i think it is..

to complete it i was looking at tein mono flex coil overs,
new paint
and 16' wheels
and installing the 5 stud conversion, recaro seats
What camber kit did you have?
I know that lowering it a certain amount will cause the car to have negative camber, did you just have the kit to correct it? (Noob2Camber)
Im running Skunk2 camber kits front and rear. my teg is probably a few mm higher than Fr33k's. there still plenty of adjustment on the rear but the fronts are almost maxed
