I DISLIKE the Neuspeeds, cause the drop was way more than they said. The Sports were supposed to be 1.7", ended up being over 2", so now I'm screwed until I get new springs or coil overs.

Pro-kit's are like 1.2" I think.....Sportlines are 1.75"....and the Road-Race ones are like 2.25".

When I switch, I'm most likely going with the Pro-Kit.

do you have a swap ?? excess weight can cause a car to drop lower than they say ?? neuspeed is usually within a 1/4 inch margin of what they say unless you have a collapsed strut or on your stock struts the springs will take excess wear and probally drop you car more.

I say Get Eibach Pro's like leslie said. or save and get a true coil-over
set-up (you get what you pay for) !! and 370 for the struts and springs is a nice price. just call them ask how much more for eibach.

Also company called RED's is featuring a full coil-over set-up for 400. they don't compare to tiens but, a hell of alot better than springs or like ground control. also you will also have adjusability options. and this is a true coilover set up !! i heard a couple rumars of it. so far high remarks but, how picky can you be for 400 bucks that will buy you about ONE TEIN !!!

No swap for me. Only reason I can figure is because I have a 4 door Integra, and it's like 100 lbs heavier than the 2 door.

Im sure you won't get less....at least not with the neuspeeds. I know of several people who used them and got more drop than they wanted. but it's up to you. good luck with whatever you choose.

I've heard of these before also.... they're *supposed* to be pretty good, especially considering their cost....
