    I'll be using Bilstein's as well with a set of eBay coilovers, interesting.

    How do they ride? I'm afraid of bottoming out my shocks.

    They were on short travel, stiffly valved shocks with 700/450 springs. I'm about to build a set for the new car with nicer valving and dual-rate springs on the front. They worked well for that application.

    If you are going with lower rate springs (400/250 or lower) I'd use the longer Integra Type-R bumpstop and trim it so you have at least 2" front and 1.5" rear before the bumpstop is engaged. Part numbers are 51722-SS0-004 front and 52722-SM4-961 rear.

    Pics and part numbers are here:

    Sweet, thanks for the info.

    It looks like FCM 46mm bumpstops are my best bet, or the stops you mentioned. I currently have 46mm bump stops on my AGX setup so I'll probably just get spring compressors and take these off to put on the Bilsteins.

    Hey everyone, I was doing some research on the (Integra) Honda 51722-SE0-003 bump stops vs. the FCM 36mm units. See it here: http://grassrootsmotorsports.com/for...t/45604/page1/

    And thanks for the idea!
