I'm thinking about getting new suspension on my 94 Accord sedan. It could use a little drop, and I want it to handle better. I suppose after 174k the suspension wears out a little. Too much body roll. I was looking to spend around $300 or so... any ideas? I've never really modded a car (besides audio) so I don't really know where to start.

some good wheels/tires will come eventually, but not soon.

thanks.

 

this is going to get moved....

 

i suppose it's not too model-specific - I just need a good place to start. any websites I should check out?

 

not sure what you can get for 300 but im checking out ground controls from weaksauce. theyre about 399. should prolly get some shocks with it too.

You're gonna have to decide how stiff you want your car to be, beyond stock.

 

see I don't really know. like I said, I haven't really modded a car before, much less experienced a modded car. I just want the suspension to be tighter. I just want to take tight corners and it still being manageable, and a little drop. i suppose a 'sportier' feel. I love everything else about the car... just want to take care of this.

I don't want a ridiculously stiff ride that makes daily driving uncomfortable, as this is my DD. Like I said, I don't really even know where to start.

 

H&R decent

 

My Civic is on Eibach Sport springs on stock shocks. The ride is lower, and a little stiffer, but still feels nice and responsive. I've also added a 14mm sway bar to the rear with 195/55/15 tires. Nice slight adjustment from stock. Nothing fancy by far.

 

I have no clue but PM me once you find out because I want to change the suspension on the '96 a little- it's real boaty

5th gen FTW. I wouldn't mind dropping mine a bit but I have other stuff to take care of first...like a CD player for example. :hs:
