if u still maintaining the same stock absorber + with Eibach, then i
believe it`s still in soft side...until u get the rite combo or fully
coilover then u can speak loud here..Disapprove

of course can get coilovers, no problem...
but 4 me must be practical as well, eibach maintains the ride comfort with
improved handling for day to day use, not track use.
if go track then worthy to put coilovers as they are a bit bumpy n harsh
ride, plus no lobang here n there...

the civic stock springs r way too soft n body roll was very very
tremendous, corner kena slow...(this is where the RS beats the Honda stock
to stock) but with eibach now much much better.

planning to get the "Eibach pro-damper" after my stock absorber kong,
anyone has try this???

"Eibach pro-damper" very good...i tried many brands before i settled on
the prodamper springs and shocks....still comfortable..but improves
handing tremendously

Thats not true, handling depends on alot more factors then stiffness, you
have to take into account rebound rates, spring/shock matching etc..

Just because a shock is rock hard doesnt mean it gives the best handling

Visit Penang SC last week and check the absorber mounting, everything
looks ok. The problem solved after they changed new absorber.

What is reasonable price for Eibach pro kit?
