I got my 5th gen prelude a couple months ago and I want to lower it about 3-4 inches. I have no clue on what kind of coilovers and shock/strut combo I should get that will fit an sh model. What do you guys think I should get? I dont really want to spend more than 900 on these, but I want something that wont give me ****ty ride quality and make it bouncy as f*ck.
3-4 inches? Really? You might as well own a Civic.
KYB AGX shocks are pretty good.

3-4 inches is LOW. You probably meant 2-3 inches haha. If you are stuck on being lowered 3-4 inches, you'll need some material cut from your rear wheel wells, and a fender roll/pull.
A lot of people like the Koni/Ground Control setup, including me:
No sir. The lower you go, the more you hinder the vehicle's operations. While it is your ride, you are choosing to turn one of Honda's greatest machines into one of its worst.
Konis are more expensive than KYBs but also higher quality.
