addiction2bass Posted June 3, 2008 Report Posted June 3, 2008 (edited) well i had 2 civics my 99civic and a 94civic. but ended up selling my 94 winter beater project to pay off all my credit card bills. SO NOW im back onto the 99 in full force that my paycheck can handle.LOL but not to much to screw up my credit cards again. definatly dont want to touch them! (very tired of those %rates! ) i just got finished instaling my new suspension last week. only thing i would like to add to it is some extended upper top hats for added strut travel. used KONI Yellow struts, with Ground Control coilovers with standard rate springs. as well as Skunk2 camber kits front and rear. so far I LOVE THE NEW SETUP! HUGE adjustment ability! i can slam the sucker out fully to lay the car on the pavement easy! but due to it being a daily driver.... its not, at least in the front i dont want to crush my fenders when taking a turn!!!! i may customize some turn/bump stops later on so i can drop the front more and not worry about it as much. but the rear i can lay low. i got 3.75inch clearance. and my rear wheel arches need rolled alittle more to run camber within specs. i rolled them before but not for this slamed ride... so now i gotta buy that tool again unfortunatly i sold the tool after i used it thinking i was done with it. WOOPS... o well. and before ya say it.... yes its a automatic..... im considing a manual swap but not sure due to it being a daily driver and anyone thats drove a stick can tell you TRAFFIC SUCKS! enough chat heres some pictures. i can go ruffly 1inch lower in the rear. and i think 2-3inches lower in the front, but i didnt set it that low since i dont want to crush my fenders... this was just a kinda TRIAL PICTURE of the drop..... just a quick setup.... you can kinda see some wicked rear camber.LOL to go any lower i need the new extended upper mounts for the struts and ground controls... otherwise with a bump my car will ride on the bump stops. ill be redoing the bump in the trunk pretty soon. this is just my TEMP system. cheap/quick prefab box and small amplifier just slaped in the trunk as you can see.LOL but getting back on my real toy feels good. its been parked all winter and my moneys been going into my old 94civic. but now im puting the cash back into my real toy/daily driver. DONT WORRY nothing crazy. future plans is lip kits front and rear as well as side skirts painted to match black. chaning my blue interior lights to green. and finishing my green underbody flexled strip i started last year. no worries lite from wheel to wheel no gaps and no lights visable, only the glow on the ground, tho i dont drive much at night anymore. id still like to complete the setup. i just need to finish the sides. other than that i think ill be pretty much done with the car. o ya i also just got a high power alternator and a second optima yellow top for the stereo upgrade.
