    mga sir, share ko lang...

    i recently bought lowering tein and gas shocks then i returned sa coilovers kasi yun isang side (front left) mas mababa sa front right ko. i searched sa hcp kung pano resolve issue. yun pala talagang ganon lang when it comes sa model ng cars natin (ek civic 96-00).

    kung may balak kayo palower car niyo, coils na lang para kayang pantayin yung stance ng oto. kahit taiwan and matagtag, hindi naman tabingi tignan. kala ko may sira na yung oto ko pero ganon pala halos lahat ng nakaEK version.

    sayang tuloy tein ko, i had to sell it less 2k then the orig price.

    yun lang po.

    sir, ok yung tein or HnR na lowering. mga 10k -12k per set yun. pero mas ok ng coils na lang gamitin mo kasi hindi papantay yung left front mo sa right front... based on experience. yung gamit ko coils na r type, taiwan made. 6.5k ata kuha ko (give or take) mga 3 years ago.

    ang ok sa coils is kaya mo adjust sa specified height na gusto mo. dati 0 inch gap ako then yung nababaan ako, ng plus 1 inch para hindi sayad gaano, DIY lang.

    gandang drop sa 17's mga 1.5 inches para kumonte ang fender gap.

    btw, gwapo ng mags niyo sir...

    kung meron pa nung Neuspeed "Green" 1.5in drop ok na brand din yun. makinis ang takbo. tama lang ang baba. I bought mine at around 11kphp (year 1999) sold it second hand 5k when i decided to sell my civic.

    may coil overs ba ang neuspeed?

    AFAIK, maganda ang drop ng neuspeed greens on an EK. Di masyado mababa and comfy yung ride. pero springs lang sya e. coils parin talaga ang da best.

    ganon pala un... kala ko may problema na ung kotse namin. hehehe. dapat mag adjustable coil overs ako kaso talagang scrumbled egg ka daw sa kotse pag bumili ka nung mga r type. decided to buy a neuspeed lowering spring na lang, ok pa ung ride. halos same as stock lang.

    sir there are sets na for coils, yung mga expensive like tokico and HnR... usually they have the set. pero if your going for the coil overs lang then ok lang yung stock muna na shocks pero ingat lang sa humps kasi malakas pa din and recoil ng fluid type. then kung bumigay na, then go for gas shocks na.

    maam, yung spoon and 5zigen, usually para sa mga track na yung specs niyan kaya matagtag talaga. if you want the comfort.... go for the tien na streets or yung neuspeed na green is your best bet.
