Default What kind of Shock/Coilover for 92 Civic HB?

What kind of Shock/coilover would you guys suggest? Because when in high speeds and i shift. The car bounces everywhere and even one time i almost swerve and hit the side of the wall in a raceway. I dont have much experience with shock/coilover.

I have a 95 Civic Coupe and plan on getting H&R Sport Springs with Tokico Illuminas shocks.

Don't get coilovers! racing springs and adjustible struts will do. Coilovers give you a bit more flexibility but are a pain to get it right.

You're all on crack. Stock blown shocks and cut springs are THE way to go. APC sells a kit that you cut your springs with and it comes with a drill bit so you can drill a hole in all of your shocks to blow them out. Don't you know that thats how all of the cars in 2F2F are done. You needs to come correct or don't come at all sons.

Thanks, I try. Humor is the best policy. There's no "E" in my username. Everyone always puts an E there, its also my email address, so I'm always getting "Hey did you get my email?" "Nope. Did you put an E in front?" "Yeah, I think so." And then I ususally hit them.
