MB3Matt Posted February 8, 2014 Author Share Posted February 8, 2014 I did think about springs, but as a couple of my stock shocks were an advisory, i figured coilovers. I see a hell of a range in price, and might just opt for some lowering springs, as I'm not really wanting to deck the car, I just want it to sit 40-50mm lower. Might just hunt out some good condition shocks and get lowering springs aswell. Just want it lower for Japfest, but dont have enough time to save for Meister R's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I think that's a good call personally. Cheap coil overs are gonna be naff and probably pack up within a year especially with the state of the roads they would get punished.

fyfie5 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 ive got the TA technics coilovers from ebay and they are about £170 now I think, been on my car for just over 2 years now, so well worth the money, not the best ride quality but what do you expect for the price, can go very low!

sambobuchanan Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 http://www.venommotorsport.com/product_details.php?id=16724&manufacturer=FK&category=Suspension What about aftermarket shocks and springs? I'm thinking about these FK's if I can't get coilovers, They're reasonably priced too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sambobuchanan Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 That's a good price, didn't know FK did kits for the M. I know, bargain! Although the range for lowering and adjustability is limited! I think I'll probably get them, I want a decent branded kit for my project (track car lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_N Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 These are the ones I was thinking of: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/COILOVER-HONDA-CIVIC-11-95-02-2001-ADJUSTABLE-SUSPENSION-EJ-EK-MA-MB-/251436189187?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3a8ac3c603 iirc they are the same as the ones Craig (Fyfie5) has. I know they are a bit more than you want to spend but although MGzs shocks with lowering springs are a fantastic set up they are f*cking hard to live with on a daily basis.Thought I'd bump this up as opposed to making a new topic, I'm looking at these for my MB2, I'd assume they'll bolt straight on? I'm used to simple things like Polos, the fact it says for rear fork types confuses me a tad, and the fact it mentions 2 front coilovers with 2 rear shocks and springs, whereas my MB2 has rear coilovers too, not separate shocks and springs as suggested in the ebay listing.
