newbie to the honda scene

[PjB16Silke]

let me start off by introducing my self, my name is pj and im from the south east of Ireland, i recently bought my first Honda which is a 99 1.4 ek4 with a b16a2 swap,
the car has all type-R lips all round
coilovers all round
hasport drives
15" rota grids
Im hoping to get some info on what i need for suspension and to improve handling so info i could get would be much appreciated

Welcome here mate. As far as handling goes, how far are you willing to go? You could go for the current setup you have and try to add other (thicker) struts, swaybars and a cage. Could be something as simple as adding a camber-kit to get a better feel

What is your current coilover setup?

 

[PjB16Silke]

the current coilovers are cheap FK performance ones, there not bad for what they are but id love to go with bc coilovers or somthing along thos lines.
whats the better make camber kits ? (front and back ? )

 

[zero9]

well i'm not super familiar with a brand of 'perfect' camber-kits. i know skunk2 makes good ones. But is the car a daily? Since i'm not running camber-kits myself i might not be the best one to give you advice on them.

as far as coils go have a look at KW V2 or KW V3, Omnipower, Buddy Club always does the job well. Yet again, no idea what anybody else here would suggest you to try 'n run.

ye the car is going to be a daily ,
thanks for the advice zero9

 

[zero9]

always a pleasure mate

To be honest for a daily EK9 shocks and Eibach springs is perfect.

 

[PjB16Silke]

the coils aren't that bad as daily use, id like to keep the low look,
i love the kanjo style on hondas so id like to go down that route if possible

 

[zero9]

ofcourse it's possible to go for that specific look. but don't forget they've done a whole lot to receive the handling they have on their car.
