I have a 97 lx sedan and i need to make it handle somewhat better than stock. my first purcahse is going to be some springs and struts on friday. anyone have any preference best for an accord. i was thinking of going koni or tokico with eibach springs. i would like a slight drop, but i am not too worried about getting it to low. right now all i have suspension wise is a front strut bar, and my shocks are shot, so they need some attention haha.
 
thanks for the help.

Eibach is a good brand.  Tokico or KYB struts are probably a good bet.

After that you could add a rear strut bar, and front and rear swaybars.  That should tighten up your suspension quite a bit.

I've got the Tokico HP kit (shocks and springs, 1.5" drop) on my 94 ex and it has worked out well.  You can get the kit off ebay for really cheap <$400, and get it installed.  If you've upgraded/changed your wheels check for wheel well clearance before dropping your car.
