Default 90-91 Civic Suspension?

Whats a good suspension setup for a 90-91 Civic? I've finally got some extra cash to get me a set. I really like KYB AGX shocks, but I'm not sure about what type of springs to use. Its going to be on my daily driver/weekend racer car.

hmmm...well, it really depends on where you live or do you want the ability to adjust to your liking. I was riding on my eibach prokit w/ tokico blues. autocrossed w/ it too. Very very plush and stiff set at the same time.

yah i like a really stiff ride, was looking into tein suspension systems they are really nice and customizable, but then again u can expect to pay newhere from 600-1400$ for a good system

when i had the kyb's and sus. tech's and you adjusted the shocks to level 4 it was really, really hard...or if you got girl in the car you can drop it down to like 1 or 2 and it's pretty soft...but still corners very well...you will definitely like the kyb's...and you should buy my springs..hehe...later

i just want it so that when i step on my breaks really hard my car does not pitch forward at all, cuz i always break late and cant stand that body roll forward and backward, i hate how my gf's altima rocks around like a boat going over waves.

I really like the Tokico Illumina's, but they are kinda pricey for me. The KYB's are more on my mind now to get with maybe some Nuespeed springs, Suspension Techniques, Eibach, or H&R's. Still undecided on which one. My car's a daily driver and a weekend racer. I just want a good setup for the drag strip.
