Default Pictures of Spring heights integra and civic

Just wondering if anyone had information on either 92 or 96 civic springs heights compared w/ integras.



-Blues are 96 civic neuspeed sofsport .75inch drop (for civic, little more than 45k miles)
-Black oem integra has about 45k miles

When I look at it, it seems more like .5 inches lower than the oem integra.

The oem integra spring rate is alot less so it'll compressed more from the weight of the car (making up the .5inch difference?), and the neuspeed feels alot tighter, so it won't compress as much. I sure hope it doesn't end up being the same height after the weight?

Dont springs and drop have to do w/ the properties of the material, not what they look like uncompressed anyway. So looking at that picture is useless.

yea, so i'm saying the neuspeed will compressed less, and the oem integra will compress more, which means the oem integra might be shorter drop?
