I have been using the prothane bushing kit and really like it. Really all you need is front and rear LCA bushings and sway bar bushings. Another solid recommendation is to either replace the dtss bushings with mazdatrix eliminators, or oem replacements. If they're worn out, it can make driving pretty wild. I still have the original ones on my 199k mile chassis, but they're not worn out. Most importantly, I don't think 99% of drivers ever really push the car in to turns that hard to ever get the 'benefits' of dtss. Just read the mazdatrix FAQ, get yourself informed, and make an educated decision.

Also, not all coil overs are created equal. As I have found out, not all struts are either. Go cheap and you will most definitely notice a lot of 'slammed civic' bounce.
