Does anybody know a good place to get these at? I have tried searching, but keep coming up empty. Maybe I’m looking in the wrong place…Thanks for the help!

I think these are only available in Europe. I tried searching for these in the US but Honda US doesn't carry them. You can buy from here: http://www.lingshondaparts.com and have it shipped to your door for like $1100-1200. I thought about getting these but when I was doing the math, I think the TEIN SS are a better choice.
Thread revival, do you guys with the Euro Sports Suspension have camber issues? What was your aligement specs after the install? Any tire wear or other issues with it? As it is OEM, I would assume that it should be OK, is it?
Thanks!
P.S.: a lot of people says the drop is different at front and at back, but I think it is the same, it is just how the fenders are designed. A lot of people with coilovers are dropping front more than the rear to compensate, but I would be very careful with that because you are just messing with the car balance and the whole car won't be leveled even and will be leaning forward - which is probably something you don't want.

I've had the euro sport suspension on my base 11 6mt for almost 3 years now. The ride is very similar to stock but it doesn't do the odd rear bouncing movement that the stock suspension does. Regarding alignment, the camber is always off but the toe is not which is what will eat your tires quicker. With that said, tire wear shouldn't be a problem if you rotate your tires often.
I don't exactly remember what the drop was but in fact the car dropped more in the rear than the front. When I installed the suspension I took measurements before and about 3 weeks later and confirmed the difference, but again I don't remember the mesasurements.
I know there are more cost effective options out there but I love the feel, fit and quality of OEM products vs aftermarket. If you want your car slammed this is not the suspension for you, but if you're looking for a modest sportier quality suspension this is definitely a good suspension to consider.

I am still happy with it after 4 years. If you have larger wheels, such as my 19", spend the money and buy a camber kit. I have SPC rear camber kit installed recently as my 19" worn out the tires in 2 years, the stock 17" lasted the normal 4 years.

Do you have the full 3 piece kit or just one piece?
I am finally deciding on this and for the same money as the OEM sportsuspension can be done Koni Yellow + Eibach sooo maaaaybeeee I will go that way in the end.
Btw, you have the same setup as I want, sports+19", did you notice improvement in a steering feel? And is the car more planted to the road in high speeds?
I installed my Euro Sport suspension yesterday and the camber is .5 front driver .75 front passenger and -2.5 rear. Does that sound like it would be ok without a camber kit? Thanks guys! Pics to come soon. I need to wash it first.

Anyone else want to chime in on the Euro Sports Suspension. Debating if it's right for me. I wanted something oem feel yet a little sporty and planning to add 19s.

That's what I have for the last 6+ years on my 09 6mt model, Euro sports suspension, running 19" Rage rim from Civic Type R, on General Gmax 225/40/19. It's a great set up.

Could you snap a side photo for me? And possibly a height measurement from the front bumper to the ground?
I'm about to order the kit for the 5AT from Lings today.
Are any of the people running this kit still around? It sounds like it is a bolt on kit and I'll need an alignment like normal after installing. Also running the stock 17" wheels so camber kit is optional?
I can't see the appeal of buying a fixed-height system in this case....or most cases. In the cases I can see the appeal, its because the shock is manufactured by a high end company, but are only available as non-threaded free standing shocks....and a reputable spring company has made a spring that pairs up to the shock extremely well.
Are these shocks like...fantastic or something?
The butts on the cars above look a little saggy. There are genuinely good height adjustable systems available for under $600. You can set whichever height you want...and then leave it there for the rest of eternity (or until the system wears out). Hell...you can even compensate for wear later down the road.
To answer your questions, though...you won't need a camber kit to clear anything. If you get a camber kit, it will be for the sake of getting the car's alignment back to spec. With factory wheels, it will look terrible unless you're looking at it dead from the side. So maybe you can use a camber kit to push the wheel toward the fender a bit more for a better look as well.
