crx susp question
Sunday, October 29, 2006 9:13 AM
umm yea well i bought a crx a while ago and its currently in pieces. The owner before me had lowered the car on the original struts, i believe its 2" up front and 1.8" out back my question is what struts can i use, i was looking at the agxs and illuminas but i was also looking at the hps i just don't know which to get and i also have no idea where to get them, im in Toronto and i desperately need shocks as the car rides like @!#$. Can i get away with using the HPs? or should i use something else. Any suggestions welcome.
thanks

so i should take a look at the tokico illuminas?? The problem im having is trying to find a good shop in toronto or a Canadian store that wont rape me on shipping and wont have a huge mark up on prices. online i can find the illuminas for 97 a piece then theres like $70 shipping and then brokerage fee.
Anymore help??

thanks

KYB Gr2's will work just fine. They are cheap and will work great on you car. What springs does it have?

the spings on the car are Neuspeed i believe, and im not really sure what the drop is. These are the springs springs it is either the top or bottom one, would blown out struts cause me to ride lower? but anyways those are the springs. would the GR-2s be a good match for the springs?? Cause i can find GR-2s and Tokico hps(blue) really easily, just unsure.

thanks

I can't say for sure they'll be a great match for your springs but i think they will be. I have a 91 Civic Si (same car as your crx) with Tein S-Tech springs (1.5" drop) and the Gr2's, it rides great.

It rides better than my Cavalier on Eibach Sportlines and Koni Yellows.
