I installed a set on my lowered wife's Civic about 1 1/2 ago. And they hold up remarkably well she has run them all last year threw SCCA and she doesent drive like a girl. She beats 7/8 of the guys. Back to the springs. We live in Great Falls Mt and the roads are crap crap crap and they do acually really well.

Civics are fast why would you even say that (iwalton63)
my friend has a civic that just has a few mods and a better transmission and it blows most peoples doors off
but with a Turbo and 15 lbs of Noz i presume \
that would be one quick ride becuz of the light weight
well my friends ricers is really light

i havent raced him yet in my neon though

stock civics are slow and most neons can beat them.

now if the civic is turboed and all that, its a different story. but he did not say that it was turboed at first.

and what kind of internals does she have running 15 pounds ?
