Hey everyone, I've been looking to pickup an 1996-2000 Civic EX Coupe, yeah I'd love the 1999/2000 Si, but, I'm too scared it'd be stolen.

Anyway...

I honestly know nothing about Honda's, I used to be a Nissan guy until someone crashed into my car and totaled it, but also loved the looks of the 96-00 Civic coupes and have been thinking of picking one up.

Anyway, I love mountain and canyon driving, so my first thoughts are suspension...

I know Honda's are already low, but could someone give me a quick run down on suspension?

What are some good springs to drop it with, that will not ever scrape, but still drop it. Some good struts, sway bars, strut bars, endlinks.

Basically, what's the moderate suspension setup, that will still be daily driven, but also on the weekends out there mashing it, not just a sceneic cruise but straight up mashing it, and also planning on auto-xing. Love feeling the road, so a bumpy ride doesn't bother me.

Also what are the stock wheel sizes? 14's or 15's? What's the idea wheel setup with 15's without screwing up the speedmeter but getting the best tire size for hugging the road?

Also any brake kits, or any kind of aftermarket rotors and pads that would be good, or anything you could swap over from an Accord or anything else?

Also looking at power, but require it all to be California street legal...

Are there any cold air intakes that are CARB aproved? Any header(s) that are CARB approved?

And what kind of numbers do they put down? How hard do they pull on the low end? And curious about top end highway, you know?

Thanks a bunch everyone!
