    Need help with choosing struts

    I've made my decision to go with the Arospeed 88-91 Civic Coilovers or the Arospeed 90-97 Accord Coilovers. Anyone know which will work/fit better? Also what struts will work best with either set of coilovers? I've read the threads on dropping the 3g and about the different struts, but I'm just a bit confused. If any suspension guru can help me, it'd be much appreciated.

    With coilovers you'd be best off with some Bilsteins revalved to handle the large springrate of the coilovers. Koni's are not produced any longer.

    if you are going with coilovers, you better get ready to spend $600+ on revalved Bilstein struts to handle any coilovers.
    there are no cheap way to drop the car.
    so plan according to your budget.
