    Get a bag of bricks and put them in your boot.

    As above, if you are on that tight of a budget get lower springs rather than sleeves (have a search both here and honda-tech and you will see they are not the best idea).
    See a good post? Give it a PQ point.

    suspension is something you really dont want to cut corners on...

    u dont want to trade off safety for the sake of making ur car more aesthetically pleasing...

    like whats been said above, lower springs would be the recommended option rather than sleeves...
    and if u can, save up for shocks to match in future...
