Tein
Basics ($750-900) - adjustable height wise, but not rebound/dampen

SS (Super Street, $1200 or so) - made for EM1 (EM2? I dunno) and have
to be mildly modded to fit. Height/dampen adjustable.

Type Flex ($1500+, I think) - height, dampen and rebound adjustable.
A more "serious" coilover.

Buddy Club - forget the name, but they are pricey and probably only
come into play if you are tracking/racing the car a lot.

JIC makes some, forget the specs/prices.

Mugen suspension - non-adjustable but a great coilover.

Hayames - same as Tein SS, may have to be modded. Cheap, but I don't
know of anyone that's used them yet.

KW V2s - several owners of these on this board. Look in older Vendor
Classifieds posts/threads for info on these.

Your best bet is to do some more searching (I know you did one, but
you should have found at least a few threads) or try to contact one
of our vendors - Showstoppers, Wired Speedlab, Robear Racing, etc,
and see what they carry/would recommend. HTH.

EM1 = 99-00 Si
EM2 = 01-up civic coupe/sedan

JIC makes the FLTA2 for the EP (~$2K retail). i've seen prices as low as $1700 for these. 15 damper/rebound settings and height adjustable.
