Hi everyone,
I'm new to this site, own an civic 97 EJ9.
The stock suspension performance is suck, too soft, too much body roll.
I'm looking for a new setup, I want it to be reliable,
perform and ride stiffer than the stock yet smooth enough for daily street drive, and be able to lower the car around 50mm.
With stock suspension I don't feel safe and stable when i drive fast in corners,
I believe it's because their too soft and it gets too much body roll, I want to get rid of that.
I'm gonna drive em' in streets only (the streets here are bad) and daily use only, don't have any tracks here.
Now the problem is that I live in israel, and can't find much in local stores,
and if i'll buy online i'll have to pay huge taxes and get plenty of documents to actually be able to get the item.
That's the way it works here.
That means I have to choose only from those setups below,
which I can buy in local stores:
vmaxx- Cheap soft garbage.
mad sport- same.
koni yellows- we have only 2 years warranty, I heard it leaks a lot, got no springs to combine them with.
kw- think they're perfect but too expensive.
And options I left with:
Tein basics coilovers- Can't find much about the tein's, heard they pretty soft and comfortable but don't know about their handling in corners.
Can I lower the car about 50mm with them?
D2 RS coilovers- I did a search and seems people who have/ had them say they good, last long and reliable, and people who doesn't had any experiance with them say they're ****.
This is stupid.
Is there any chance that D2 is better?
Any opinions are welcomed.
Thanks.
