Hondas do well slammed with stock geometry pieces, unlike other cars like Sentras where handling actually gets worse as they drop without changing arms.

a honda may do very well an inch off the ground, but that doesnt mean its optimal. but whatever, i dont have to ride in a car that looks like its got pogo sticks for suspension.

Nope, can't say I ever thought my car was too low. And for the ride, it's actually pretty good I think. Not bouncy like cars with blown struts. With the AGXs they keep it tight, but not too tight.

Even if the control arm angles were good, with 13 inch all-season tires and no sway-bars, it still wouldn't handle worth ----.

Thanks for the opinion. :1

The VX just doesn't come with sway bars front or back. It was the ultimate lightweight 92-95 hatch since on top of being stripped down to nothing, it also came with lightweight parts like the 9 lb wheels and aluminum engine bay parts. But with the stiff springs I have, there is pretty much zero body roll on the car right now around any turn. But I do think a lowrider pickup will be my next beater...probably with some airbags.

i had a mazda 323hb. check my cardomain site for pics. it came with no front sway bar stock and teh rear was pathetic. i ended up installing them and alot of other better parts.
