No possibility of Civic/Integra springs fitting? Im sure there is atleast one person that has lowered an Insight before. Something has to interchange, thats the way Honda is. :lol ---

the rear springs can be had off a chevy aveo, and they make lowering springs for that car. however, their lowering springs will make my car stock ride height. but, it has an increased spring rate which is what the insight peeps are looking for. i tried contacting ground control, but they are a little iffy, and eibach said i needed 50 sets of ordered in order for them to make some. ---

18.7 @ 75 mph. it was terrible, i forgot to lower the tire psi (50 psi), and i some how went a little sideways at the line, then bogged. im not looking for anything great. but, id like to get a high 16 out of her. if it doesnt rain, ill probably go tomorrow since it will be free due to the rainout. ---

I want one of these, so I can rip the batteries and electric motors out, and put a K20 in it. Or an F20B… Closest thing you can get to a CRX with a reasonably new car. ---
