Vtir handling

**fabz** · 28-02-2006 06:41 PM

Hey ive got a dc2 vtir and the handling on it sucks, its heaps low and ive got 18s on it, just wondering what would be the best set up for it to make it handle bit better. I dont take it to the track or anything just sometimes if i take a corner to fast or change lanes quick car feels heaps unstable probaly got to do with the tyres as well there 35 profile..

Smaller wheels, better suspension, springs, upgrade rear sway bar. Atm Im running whiteline controls on stock shocks and handling is pretty good. Saving a bit more to upgrade suspension and swaybar. Bigger wheels = bumpier ride

yeah i dont really wana put smaller wheels. and the ride is fine lik when im driving straight just cornering doesnt feel good. got king springs or k mac not sure there orange.

Orange would mean they are K-mac...shitty springs...I know...they are on my car...

well start on the springs then since they're cheap, $298 for set of 4 whiteline control, sound like ur like ur car dumped then go for flat outs, i think they same price. If ur suspension are still doin good u'll notice a huge difference in handling just on spring and stock shocks alone. Not the best but its a big improvement over stock.

Get yourself a good shock/spring combo. Or if you want to stay dumped get a decent set of coilovers.

This will help the handling the most.

I originally had lowered springs in my VTi-R Civic Coupe, although a different car share many of the same components to the integra. I eventually went for a thicker rear sway bar and Coilovers. The car turned on a Dime and the ride quality did not suffer. Remember though if your going for coilovers, a good set of Tires are essential.
