Re:Stiffing up the car.......88 crx
i was gonner say neuspeed/blisten coilovers..that`s like the best i`ve tried/ride in, it make your car feels like a factory sport car..
then i`d go for Agxs...know a few ppl using them and got 0 problem so far running mountains
i`ve had two friends with the takiko Ilummxxx(sp :P), in a civic and a mr2..end up the mr2 has two leaking one and two blown one(really blown that if you pull the rod out it drops right back in
) and the civic has two leaking one.
and my brother has the blue type in his car with skunk2 coilover and i didn`t like it too much, feels like a replacement oem shocks..
so i see NO takiko(sp again :P) in my future.

and go negitive on camber if your not going to drive it everyday. maybe take it to a race chassis building place that works with autocross cars if your not sure what to do yourself. theyll give you allot of good sugestions

A full cage for daily driving would suck 
If your going to put one in a car you drive alot on the streets, go with a Roll bar. I beleive someone already mentioned Autopower. They make great bars and cages for street and race apps.

I second the don't buy a cheap spring setup. I've never been impressed with coilovers. For shocks I like to use KYB or Bilstien. Eibach sportline (red ones) springs suck for DSM cars.
Does anyone know if civics are able to be sub framed? ---- if I know, been too long since I've been under one and I didn't really look for it.
Damn I need to sleep, ------- ulcers keeping me awake.

Check here for a cage cause there pretty cheap. Nothing over 300 for a full cage and they're $40 off on all cages I believe and 20 for the roll bars.

I think Julio wants to just weld up one himself.. if the volvo ever gets a cage it will have to be custom. Damn I really need a roll bar in the K5 - as much as I abuse that bitch offroad and get airborn and ----.
