YMTC003 1988-1991 Honda Civic

Yonaka Coilover Kit



Featuring:

All Aluminum Upper Mounts
0-4" Height adjustment.
Fully Threaded Mono Tube Shock Absorber.
Inner bump stop to prevent damage cause by rapid compression impacts.
Wide range of height adjustment without changing the spring compression.
Bottom of the shock is threaded to allow height adjustments without having to shorten the suspension travel.
Rubber dust shield protecting piston for long life.
Adjustment tools included.

Spring rates are as follows:
Front springs: 12kg / 180mm
Rear springs: 6kg / 200mm

I guess it depends on what you want out of them. If you're just looking for adjutable height and regular street use, then I'm sure they will be fine.

But if you're looking to track the car I woudn't think the body would good long on the abuse w/o starting to leak or break valves. And if you're looking to drag the car, the spring rates are completely wrong (they are to soft in the back and you'll get to much front end lift, which = less traction on FWD cars).

Hope that helps.

lol... for track use, yes.

but for being Hard Parked they are a decent alternative to springs on a threaded perch

you should ask the company if they have any shock dynos on them. That way you can have a better idea how much abuse before the inner valve needs to be rebuilt.
also ask if they are refurbishable.

for street/track at a low price I would recommend either Tein SS, D2's or your the ever classic Koni Yellows on Kg/mm.

The key is just finding a good stiff spring and strut for the rear, that will eliminate any sinking in the rear due to weight transfer when you launch. the spring rate in the front is not as important as the strut is; the strut is more important in the front cause rebound is your anti-traction. With a decent strut the car should decompress slowly as to keep the front end down and the weight on the front wheels.

I hope that makes some sense
