I just bought a 1987 Civic 1500s and I want to get it lowered. I don't need anything amazing. What do you guys suggest and where can I get some ?
Thanx :bigup:

is it flat black with an old honda Michelin challenge roll cage ans prelude seats??

as for lowering the car uses a torsion bar front suspension, I belive it can be adjusted. I had Suspension technique sway bars on the car, they really(along with the cage) made a difference, the car was flat in all corners.:yikes: A kart like feeling.

you need to check out http://www.redpepperracing.com/ for advice on parts.post pics if you can.

BTW did you get a settlement from your insurance yet for your Jetta?

It was a fun little go kart !!
