YES. I'm glad I've been waiting for this.

oh my.

 

[REDRAGN53]

They said about a month for the release...so maybe 2 weeks out?!
These are definitely on my list.

 

[ssmith]

I have been in contact with a rep about the coilover conversion sleeves. Price is $449.00. Spring rates 440 fronts and 300 rear. Not listed on site but can be ordered if asked. Waiting to see if they are compatible with the Si so I can order a set for mine. 1.5" drop for the front with springs thay are provided and 1.3-1.5" in the rear. Hope this helps.

oh wow. I was expecting more adjustability than that

This is just for the coilover conversion sleeves, a full coilover setup is set to release as well but not sure of when. And this conversion is hatchback specific, according to the pinned post hatchbacks have their own spring setup.

oh wow. I was expecting more adjustability than that

I have an SI, the coilover sleeves would work but the full coilovers would not with the active dampening.

Those spring rates are almost x3 stiffer up front and x.5 stiffer in the rear over the stock Si rates.. pretty aggressive for the stock damper wonder how they would hold up over time

Same here.. 1.3"-1.5" of a drop is OK.. I guess... but I was hoping for something in the 1.0"-2.0" drop adjustability range

I know a few have installed springs on the Si already...do we have a definitive answer about any check lights or system issues after lowering?

 

[ssmith]

Yea, I was hoping adjustability up to 2in like all the other setups I had on my older hondas. Now I am considering the skunk2 springs if I can find the spring rates for those.....

My last civic (90 si) I had 350/250 spring rate full coilovers. VERY comfortable to daily.
