    Weapon-R circuit pro coilovers. I know don't laugh at me. I got them at a very cheap price. smile I would take between 150-200 since they are only 5 months old.

    I will tell you when I get my Progress springs/tokiko blues installed, and my clutch spring fixed, hopefully next week.

    They look very pretty though!

    From driving several different springs on 4th gens at autocross's, I can definally say progress are by far the best balanced springs i've come across. I have a eibach pro-kit right now (1 inch drop or so) and the progess's add about another inch, but the big differnce is in their springs rates they are great for cornering and the street. My friend is sellin his progress springs to get progress coilover's hehe, i REALLY want to pick up his springs bad. I just need money!!!

    From what my friend tells me they are pretty forgiving for the street. You just have to remember that another inch is another inch...so no matter what springs you get you have to account for possible bottoming out now and then. But we've had 3 people in my friends 90 civic and were still able to clear some speed bumps with the progress springs (you gotta crawl to do it hehe) hope that helps out a bit.
