While the stock suspension is much stiffener than the FD1 (1.8L) I find there is still too much roll especially at the rear especially when doing high speed sweeper on track.

Until yesterday, i was advised to look into HFP suspension 2006 from hondapartsdeals.com and today Japanparts.com: TOKYO GM SHOKAI KK where both website offers aftermarket but geniue suspension manufactured by Honda.

Now for the question, have you or do you know if the stiffness or damper rating between these 2 suspensions? Also, is HFP suspension stiffer than Si suspension found in the states?

Thanks.
hey thanks for the question... i can really only vaguely answer it however. i do know that b/t OEM & HFP; HFP is definitely the stiffer & firmer setup. OEM is stiffer than the REGULAR Civic (FG1/FA1 here stateside) but still a lil soft for my taste which is why i chose Honda warrantied & proven/tested HFP setup.

sorry i couldnt be of more specific help but that's what i got for ya.
