I'm going to start this by saying that I have lowered my previous Civic using Ractive coilovers :noo which was a huge mistake..the ride was horrible and it was just an unenjoyable experience. That being said, you could imagine how paranoid about the purchase of another lowering kit. I finally decided on a set of Neuspeed Sportlines to drop my 1993 Civic Si. When I did...it was sooo much better than what I had before...these springs lowered the car with minimal signs....the ride is not rough, handling is awsome (which is also helped out by low-pro tires) and I am beyond impressed. I definately give these springs a 5/5!

This is a little known fact, but Neuspeed sports were designed for the car to ride on the bumpstops. I emailed Neuspeed about this and they said they incorporate the actual bumpstop in the overall spring rate of their springs. I thought this kinda odd. I found out when I installed my Neuspeed sports on my integra and trimmed the bumpstops. The car sat way lower than it should. After finding out about the bumpstops, I reinstalled new ones and car sat up like it should. Thought I'd share that tidbit....

These are one of the best springs on the market to lower a car. The neuspeed sport springs are progressive, the ride is comfortable when crusing, and the springs stiffen up during racing and hard cornering. I give it 10/10

They are exactly the same as the H&R sport springs I might add also.

READ the instructions that come with the springs. Do what it says for YOUR car. For my teg, it said DONT trim bumpstops. Make sure and do what the sheet says or ur car will sit wrong and drive like crap and bottom out.

from what i've heard they are good but really should only be used in cars dropped 1.5" or less.
I've got a set of neuspeed sport springs and Tokico blues... they handle very nice... I cut the bumpstops in 1/2 and I'm actually gonna replace the ones in the front.. (the camber is totally out of wack) I have a camber kit on them and it's still not enough.
