okay i was just wondering, do you have to buy certain kinds of shock for certain coilovers, b/c i have some cheap Ebay coilover for 30 bucks...it's on my car right now (91 EF9) and all my shocks are pretty all out and was wondering what kinds of shocks would fit or will any kind of shocks WILL fit? not really sure...

okay for the spark plugs, i have some new NGK iridium IX and it's going in my all motor b16a1...how much am i supposed to gap ?

Usually with coilovers, they come with rubber o-rings that will adapt the sleeves to any shock. I'd go with adjustable shocks so you can match the dampening with the spring rate.

As for the plugs, unless you're boosted or juiced, go with the stock gap.

Should say on the underside of the hood... usually something like 1.1mm
