Also once u get ur springs I would recommend u spare them with under body rust proof stuff cos are winters are going to kill them fast do to the progressive spring setup....i used rock guard on mine before installing.

I will get to researching one know.I will put it on same time as I do the springs.

I am not expecting great handling or anything outstanding but as long as the wheels dont look silly on the car I will be happy for know.

Cutting bumps stops does make a difference in how it works. You gone go lower so you want suspension travel not ride on the bump stops lol

cut

I seen a post where they were cut down.

How much do I leave attached?

I will be doing the springswap my self aswell as adding swaybar.

I did replace struts on a civic almost 20 years ago so i know I can do it.

Simple logic ur car will sit 1.5 inch lower so why would u use stock hight bump stops cut 1 inch off at least or every other bump u will hit them and restrict ur suspension travel...also good luck with swaybar links they are fun to remove, use heat if possible also remove wipers and all in that are 10 min job to get to the top shock mounts.

I have a small oxy-acet torch and have used it for similier nuts.

I will cut one inch off.I actually already had the cowling removed previously,piece of cake.

Thanks for the pointers.

swaybar

Not sure if I can even afford that @ cost?

at least not at the moment.

Between full stereo components upgrades,rims,rubber and springs the budget is almost tapped out.

I may need to cut back on my other hobby

swaybar

180.00 CAD!

That may be workable..especially since its a quality unit.

I appreciate all the BTW.

Much appreciated.

I would even consider used items if need be.
