Hey all, my gf has a eg civic with a b18c2 in it. I conned her into the swap and now I need to find a way to replace her worn stock shocks that make the cars handling feel like your in a boat, with some coil overs.
Trouble is I got coils overs in my car and she hates them (too stiff apparently). So my question is what would you guys say is the softest, nearest to stock coil overs out there for the eg civic? Thanks for your replies...
looks for coilovers that have the softest spring rating? not sure what stock springs are..
The 'softest' coilovers I've ever experiences were Tein Basics and Tein Super Streets.
maybe she just doesn't like yr celica lol jking only
in this case u will pbly need some sport shocks + coilovers sleeves
is height adjustment important?
U can just swap the springs, with something like f6 r4
But in sayin so, the dampers would needa be adjusted for the softer spring rate
for good coilovers with ride comfort, as pointed out , tiens even bilstien, but are $$$$$
Tein Super Street .
We got them in stock at special price
cusco comp s... pretty comfy. height adjustable only.
Am I missing something here? Your car, you mount whatever suspensions that turn you on.
If she doesn't like it, she can always drive her own car.. :-p
He's actually talking about the EG civic that his gf bought.Quote:

In which case, just get normal sussys...why bother with coilovers
Good springs and shocks. That way you get the comfort and the handling when driving on the street. Coilovers are great when you are pushing 9.5/10 on the track but on the street, they don't show their advantage because the difference between coilovers and good spring/shock combo is when you are driving way way above the reasonable level.
Thanks for the replies. Just need something a bit more modern that's a tad bit stiffer. Height adjustment isn't really a problem, so prolly going to decide between the koni's or skunk2's gear....
If I can secure a set of coilovers I'm looking at now - I'm going to sell my Koni + ITR spring combo for around $600 <10K km...
