Skunk2 Sport Shocks for 88-91 Civic/CRX

Skunk2 Sport Shocks for 1988 to 1991 Honda Civic and CRX

If your EF is starting to feel like a pogo stick, tired dampers, floaty transitions, random hop over bumps, Skunk2 Racing Sport Shocks fix the basics without turning your car into a science project. These are factory replacement style shocks with a fixed ride height, so you get tighter control and a cleaner ride without messing with clickers.

Skunk2 uses a lot of the same tech and processes found in their Pro ST and Pro S II coilover systems, just packaged as a bolt in sport shock. That means you can drop these in on a mostly stock car, or one with intake and exhaust type mods, and still get consistent street manners. We still run these exact parts on our own cars when we want reliability and predictable damping, not endless adjustments.

Each shock uses a dual tube layout, a hardened chrome plated super finished shaft, and precision valving that Skunk2’s suspension team tunes. In the real world, that translates to less wallow, better control in quick left right transitions, and more confidence mid corner compared to worn OEM units. The shortened body and reduced shaft stroke also matter if your car sits lower than stock, you keep usable travel instead of slamming into the bump stops every time the road gets ugly. 

Damping stays fixed and matched to Skunk2 Lowering Springs, so you do not have to guess spring rates or wonder why the car feels underdamped. You also get a polyurethane top hat bushing, which sharpens feedback through the wheel and makes the front end feel more connected. It does add a little more road feel than a soft OEM bushing, but most people call that a fair trade for better response on a daily.

For the cleanest combo, pair these Skunk2 shocks for Civic with Skunk2 Lowering Springs, Sleeve Coilovers, and a camber kit. That setup helps your alignment stay happy, keeps grip more consistent, and makes the car feel planted on a back road without beating you up on the commute.
