well it seems that my arospeed coilovers have finally crapped out on me after two years. well i was pondering about kyb agx shocks with eibach pro kit. how's this combo sound? i could get both the shocks and springs for roughly 600 shipped...does this sound good or am i getting ripped off. this is all goin on a 99 civic dx

That sounds high, you can get Koni Yellows and some Skunk2 coilovers for about $150-200 more..... I'd go with a better setup, but if you don't need c/os, then that combo sounds good. I still think the price is too high...

Prokit's won't give you much of a drop if that is what you are looking for. They're relatively "soft" also compared to other springs.

KYB AGX's are a good bang for the buck, but I'd shell out the extra cash for a set of Koni Yellows :thumbup:

thanks for the help, i'm not looking for coilovers cause they do me no good, i've had coilovers for 2 years now and i've never adjusted the ride height. plus i'm not looking for that big a drop, right now i'm lowered 3 inches and its hell driving around in michigan, it already busted my underbody neons. so would the pro-kit with koni yellow's ride better than the kyb?

Much! I run Koni Yellows and they're extremely nice. Fully adjustable and you can set the perch height too. You can essentially change your ride height with the Konis alone. :thumbup:

I can get both Koni and Eibach. If you want some pricing, send me your zip, car info, and part requests.

DAMIT! You stole the AVATAR too! :db:

Mine's custom though...

I've never ridden in a car with Neuspeed springs so I have no idea. Eibachs seem good to me though - both ProKit and Sportlines.
