Any suggestions for suspension?
What's the minimum I should have? (It's lowered already)

Strut bars, sway bars, good adjustable shocks and you should be set. Maybe a camber kit depending on how low you are.

Agreed.

Best bang for the buck will be suspension mods.

swede- once you go H22 you will not go back.

Well you already have front and rear sway bars...stock ones. When people say "get sways" they mean upgrade to thicker ones for better handling.

Strut bar - just spans the gap between one shock tower to the other. Basically a rod that helps stiffen the car.

Some cars come with them stock, but 96 Accords didn't.

Ooooooohhhhhh. I get it.
I think I need to invest in a Haynes manual and a magazine subscription before I REALLY embarrass myself.

no need for haynes. search for the helms online hosted by icelords. it's on many of the boards in pdf. magazines would help, but the forums are a great resource too. personally, i plan to boost after my next smog check in 2 years. hehe. swap or boost is a personal preference or you can do both. have fun modding, but do your homework first. i'm sure we can all admit that we've bought things we didn't want/need afterall. sometimes paying a lot and crying once is better than crying TWICE to fix a mistake. do it right the first time.
