Civic EG

Sup guys! I have a couple questions regrading lowering my civic. I have a 95 Civic LX sedan. It is pretty much stock. I really want to lower it, for looks and performance. Right now it rides like crap, the stock shocks died. I don't have much money but I want a decent setup. I was thinking about going the shocks/springs combo or the shocks/coilover sleeves setup. What would be better for me? I want some more performance, good ride quality(not so harsh), and good looks. This is my DD, and I drive 1 hour to school one way everyday, so a comfortable ride would be good. I like the idea of adjustable ride height with coilovers.

For shocks I am going to go with either Skunk2 Sport Shocks or Koni STR.T.

For Springs I was gonna go with Vogtland 2" lowering springs.
For Coilover Sleeves, just ebay ones with the scale.

Any input would be great! Thanks

well i lower my 95 hatch with coil overs instead of springs so my suggestion go with coil overs (eBay is good but make sure you check the feedback ppl leave for the seller), i myself would go with koni yellows (sport)
well man good luck i expect some pictures once its done.

P.S. my friend lowered his civic with springs and now he wants to go lower.

Get the adjustable coilovers, you will be much happier because you can lower the car as much, or as little as you want. Function and Form Type 1 coilovers are a good budget option.

Thanks for the suggestions. I really want the F2 Type 1, but they are too expensive for me right now, I'm just gonna save up for them. At Weksos they have them for $630 with Free LCA.

Honestly you should just wait until you can get a quality piece of equipment, instead of getting something that will get you by for now. In the end you will end up spending way more money doing it that way. Also look into blackworks racing, and omnipower coilovers, you may be able to find better deals on them and they are the same unit as the F2s.
