Where have you 2 come across those mugen torsion bars? And how much did you buy thme for, if you dont mind me asking?

mine came with my crx when i bought it, the guy didnt say where he got them from exactly, but i've measured them and they are what they are suppose to be.


but my car cost me 400 dollars, 2 guns and a six pack of beer and came with a bunch of extras like a dc front strut bar, 2 trust strut bars, a trust rear sway, kyb and eibach springs and struts, beautiful interior, an 87 teg harness complete and uncut, 4pt roll bar, those mugen t bars and some other stuff i cant think of at the moment.

my car is effing low lika 1/4 inch between my 205/15/50s and my front fender... only car i have seen lower than mine is MR. D's

i use 5/8 inch spacers to push the wheels out flush withthe wheel arch looks bad arse

[sleeperbeauty]

well.. lets see here.. the pic that i got dont really show it too well.. but i got my 88 civic sedan as far as it can go on stock struts.. without cutting the strut... i dont got any springs period..
cost $0.00
ride ... sucks
looks ... pretty cool
would i do it again.. F**KIN RIGHT!!!!

[crxls]

there it is, sleeperbeauty's car with no springs.

[sleeperbeauty]

that there is a genuine hillbilly set up.. the 195/50-15 tires are tucked in about 1/2 an inch up front and 1/3 inch in the back. maybe more.. i'm not a good judge of distance. the tow hook up front is about 3/4 inch offa the ground and the pinch welds right behind the front wheel is about half inch offa the ground.. i like to drive around in that thing with a sambryro on and a big chew in my lip.. so i look like a mexican redneck and listen to rap music. all genres of that car all put intogether (ps, i'm 6'4 and 210 pounds.. i'm not small)

Damn sleeper, that sedan is hella low I like!!!

But it's not about how low you can go, it's about versatility :

I put the eibach springs on the back( I think they were the sportsman). And I need to index my front bars. I also have tokiko HP shocks on my car, it loves to smack the rear on certian bumbs especially when it's fully loaded for an autocross with a passenger.

Sleeperbeauty - I have an 89 Sedan just like yours. On black 15" Slipstream. 205 50 Kumhos, and I'm 1/4" from my tires with Neuspeed Race springs.

So, what's in the sleeper?

I have a mini-me turbo with mostly junkyard parts in mine.
