    Suspension help! Too low now! Running KYB Gr-2 with H&K springs

    I am currently driving AccordAnimal's 92 ex until I can find a cb7 of my own(since my car crapped out on me). Anyways, he dropped the carusing KYB GR-2 struts and H&K springs. The suspension settled a lot, and I was just wondering what I could do to get the car back up a little. I was thinking of maybe getting some Tein S-tech springs? Any suggestions? Anyone else running a KYB GR-2 setup? What springs are you using? Thanks, I'm getting tired of having to go 10 miles an hour over railroad tracks, and avoiding roadkill as if it were the plauge. I swear, if I hit a raccoon I'll just keep pushing him, there's no way he's going to fit underneath the car

          I know how you feel man. I had a NEX coilover system that was running wayy too low!
          I recently switched to Tein H-tech springs and Tociko HP (blue) shocks.
          The ride is soo smooth, but if you want to drive hard, the springs and shocks will take that too.
          I definately recommend this.
          The Tein S-Tech's are a bit low, they advertise 2.00 " drop but is more like 2.5 after the springs settle.
          The H-tech's on the other hand advertise 1.5" drop, but more like 1.75" after setteling.
          Enjoy

                Switch to AGX struts. The AGX kills the drop and lets the car sit higher.

                On non-AGX struts, Neuspeed Race will be too low still.

                    Plus the entire Nex setup was killing the car's chassie. Creaks and rattles everywhere.

                    I am planning to put them back on my CB& when I get another car and my CB7 takes over track duty.

                    Ah ok. I just thought you had them installed and were like "aahhh too low" and switched the whole suspension...

                        had before it is real smooth now

                        the H&r sprinps are the oem springs about .75 but after settling
                        it was about 1.0 or 1.25 it ok with me i was going to get the sport springs
                        but i did not want to lower carmore than than because around
                        here there are a lot of dips.

                        u can also see me signature on how it looks
                        hopes this helps
