    factory stuff

    i can hear my cvc joints clicking making turns and i hear a thunking noise on bumps and road seperations i assume this is the struts needing replaced and im curios if i should buy factory or autozone parts and would it be better to just buy the things needed to do a 2-2.5 drop all around ..and if so what would i need ..im planning on running 15s or16s for rims..something from pepboys or some typ of factory honda whls..JB

    performance shocks are hard to come by these days for the 3g so you'll probably have to go with stock struts. Keep in mind that if you lower your car the ride will be rough because you'll be riding on stock struts and it'll wear them out faster. If you wanna lower your car, stay away from coilovers unless you dont mind your car riding like fred flinstones car. The best bet is Sprints which are pretty nice.
