Exactly. Listen to this man!

LOLZ @ the peeps who think they can design a better suspension setup than the Honda engineers. Stupid ricers.

It took me about 4.5 hours...if I do it again...it should take no more
then two hours.

Just a note, if you plan to get, camber kits, rear sway bars, and brake lines.
Now is the time with the suspension.

Also, the shocks are from Showa.

I did not know that. Where did you find this info from? So basically this is the same as the Mugen Suspension? That be awesome lol...

It's marked on the shocks. I was kinda surprised too.

You know what..lemme check out the original ones, see if it's mark Showa somewhere.

Well, I'm sure they are probably different Showas, don't you think? and Mugen probably has rebranded springs?

By the way, they are listed here, but before you think it's a good deal, you'll have to buy all these nuts and bolts as well as the coilovers, which would get you near $600...

I'm assuming you want to see how low it looks right? If thats the case 18's on HFP and Mugen would be the same as far as I know since the drop is identical between the two.....about an inch.

BUT, performance wise I'm not sure maybe the Mugen is better but theres very few people if any tried out both suspensions....In fact, theres very few with Mugen suspension also...

how much space is there between the wheel well, i was going for the look of the wheel well sitting just above the tire, almost so u cant see any space inbetween the tire and wheel well, do u think i can get that with the HFP suspension?

My Si came with the HFP bodykit, how would I tell if it had the suspension upgrade? Is it a package deal or can u buy everything separate?

there is a lot of pics if you search a little but with my FA5 on HFP suspension it leaves about a two finger gap....

for you since your going for the "look", you can get progress springs or any spring that will give you about a 1.3" - 1.5" drop. i had progress before and it eliminates any gap between the wheel well and tire...

Do you have the HFP wheels also? If not, then you probably didn't get the package deal and your probably running on OEM suspension.
