cool, its a little harder to find honda heads that are into handling, i think im gonna go w/ ohlins coilovers if allowed to order 16k/14k spring rates, what do you think? as far as the rest of the suspension im still unsure, all i have in my head right now is. 16x8.5 front 16x7.5 rear probably te37's on 225/45/16 or something close (still not sure what tire) all around, and for sure have to upgrade my lsd, can't find much info on sway bars though.. haha
Sadly in the honda world people forget about the importance of sway bars.
Look up comptech. Best in the honda biz in my opinion.
Be careful with Te's....get MULTIPLE locks. Honda heads like to steal those.
225's on my civic were beefy. LSD is a KILLER upgrade. Torque steer sucks.
Benen rips for suspension info and parts as well.

honestly...the 16/12 was too much for me. It didn't last very long. I was part of the zeal test group in 2000. I gave them back...too damn stiff for anything but auto cross and the track. Our streets SUCK!!! I'd recommend 12/10 at the most.

That reminds me. The Auto X section of honda-tech.com has really good suspension and tire info, which was a refreshing change to all the JDM-whorefesting at the other sections. I remembered when I used to frequent that site several years ago, there were a lot of ITR owners on that section.
I'm same name there....honda-tech loves me...haaaa. Same on superhonda.org and any other honda site...you see an OMA...that's most likely me. Specially if it's in the suspension forums. That's all I cared about with my civic.
my cousin's baby dady had an ITR. Stuffed it. Ended up taking the entire car and putting it inside of a 92 hatch. That thing ran 12.8's and was one of the sickest cars I have EVER been in. Handled and broke so well. Full cage. ITR brakes/5 lugs. wheels. Amazing car. I'm actually considering looking for one myself to use as a daily that's set up that way. All motor. no flash. Probably primer it anyways. satin black with gloss black wheels..haaa.
