had progress springs for awhile they gave a good drop and awesome ride
however full coilovers are the way to go

I have clubrsx springs and they are really good. No bounce at all. I should be selling my stock shocks and springs soon. 35,000 on the shocks and 10000 on the springs.

Can anyone help me? Well I have a 2005 type-s and I was thinking on getting a coilover or a lowering springs. I don't want it bouncy when I go over a pot holls or something. I want a smooth driving and without a bouncy ride.
Anyone that can help me?

Coilovers, better ride, the one thing I always hated about the RSX, was the suspension, it was way to soft from the factory. Do your homework, don't buy a cheap set of springs just to save a dollar, cause in the end you may end up removing the springs you just bought to install a set of coilovers, save up a little coin and buy a good set of coilovers you will be glad that you did, it makes the car handle so much better. Just my 2 cents, good luck bro:upyours:

teins springs suck for the rsx/ep3... the best drop you can probably get from springs are h&r race or neuspeed race.. both will drop it and pretty much will ride like stock. coilovers are the way to go tho... tein coilovers, apexi, buddyclub... they are all pretty good

i have comptech springs on mine, it sits perfect, but problem is they're on stock struts, so the ride has not gotten bouncy. if i had to do it all over again, i woulda saved and purchased full coilover kit

I have skunk2 springs. Ride is ok, not perfect but ok. But the drop sucks, rear appears to be lower than front and I hate that look. But I got them for only 100 bucks so they'll do for now.
