I own a 2001 Honda civic Coupe.
it had been lowered with lowering springs when i bought it. I would like to bring it back to normal, so what do i need to buy? Stock springs? what else? and how much would this kind of work cost?

any response would be very appreciated, thanks.

If the struts had been changed to performance type, they would have to replaced together with the srpings.

The cheaper way is to get the complete strut assy from the jumk yard, should not cost you too much.

Book time for all 4 strut assy replacement is 2.4 hours.
