Adjustable Coilovers for Honda Civic, CRX & Acura Integra (Fork-Type Rear, 1989-2000)

If you're shopping for Honda Civic coilovers that actually let you dial in ride height and damping instead of just dropping the car and hoping for the best, this 24-way adjustable kit is built for exactly that. It's a full front-and-rear coilover set (not just springs, not just struts) for the classic small-chassis Hondas and Acuras that enthusiasts have been lowering and tracking for decades — the EF, EG, EK Civics, the ED/EE CRX, the Del Sol, and the DC2/DC4 Integra.

24-Way Adjustable Honda Civic Coilovers, Built for Drivers Who Tune Their Own Suspension

A lot of budget coilover kits give you one or two damping settings and call it adjustable. This kit gives you 24 clicks of rebound damping, so you can go from a comfortable daily-driver ride to a firm, track-ready setup without swapping parts. The body is fully threaded, which means you adjust ride height independently of preload — turn the perch, not the whole strut, and you can drop the car anywhere from 1 to 3 inches below stock height depending on how aggressive you want the stance. Whether you're building a clean street car, a weekend autocross toy, or a Civic that sees the occasional track day, you have the range to set it up the way you actually drive it.

The springs are 55CrSi high-strength cold-wound, heat-treated steel — the same spring alloy used in a lot of higher-end performance suspension because it holds its rate consistently instead of sagging after a season of hard use. Up front you're looking at an 8kg/mm rate (448 lbs/in), and out back 5kg/mm (280 lbs/in), which is a reasonably aggressive but still streetable rate split for this platform. The shock bodies and mounting hardware are T-6061 billet aluminum with an anodized finish, so they're lighter than steel OEM-style housings and they won't rust out on you the way old stamped-steel struts do after a few Midwest winters.

Damping comes from a twin-tube design on both the front and rear units, which tends to run a little quieter and more forgiving over rough pavement than a harsh single-tube racing shock, while still giving you real control once you start pushing the 24-way adjuster toward the firmer end. Front and rear top mounts use rubber bushings rather than solid spherical bearings, which keeps some of the factory-like noise and vibration isolation intact — a nice compromise if this car still has to do daily-driver duty.

Important: Confirm You Have the Fork-Type Rear Bracket Before You Order

This is the part we don't want you to skip. These old Civics, CRXs, and Integras were built across many trims and model years, and Honda used more than one rear suspension bracket design during this era. This kit is the fork-type rear bracket version only. If your car's rear suspension uses the other bracket style, this coilover will not bolt up, full stop — it's not a matter of forcing it or using a spacer, the mounting geometry is different. Before you order, take a look at your rear strut mounting point and compare it against reference photos for "fork type" vs. the alternative bracket style for your specific chassis and year, or pull your own strut and check it against the images on this listing. If you're at all unsure which bracket your car has, reach out through our request a part page with your VIN or chassis code and we'll help you confirm fitment before you buy, not after.

What's in the Box

You get a complete four-corner coilover assembly — two front struts and two rear struts, already built with springs, spring seats, and dampers ready to bolt in. We include the adjustment wrench you need to turn the 24-way damping dial and set ride height, plus mounting sleeves and washers for the vehicles in this fitment list that need them. You're not left sourcing extra hardware separately to finish the install.

Why Buyers Choose This Kit

Honda Civic coilovers at this price point don't usually pair a true 24-position damper with heat-treated 55CrSi springs and billet aluminum construction — that combination is normally reserved for kits costing quite a bit more. This one suits owners who want a genuine adjustable setup for a car they plan to keep lowered, tuned, and driven hard, whether that's canyon runs, autocross, or just a cleaner stance on the commute. Because the housings are threaded and damping adjusts in real steps, you're not locked into one ride height or one feel on install day — soften it for a road trip or stiffen it for a track day, any time.

We stand behind this kit the way we'd want a supplier to stand behind it for us. See our warranty page for coverage details, our shipping information for delivery estimates, and our order tracking page once your coilovers ship. If this listing isn't quite the exact application you need, browse our suspension parts collection for other chassis options, or send questions through the contact page — we'd rather answer them before you buy than after.
