Ok so i'm know i'm probably going to get terminology way wrong so i'm just going to appoligize from the start. Anyway, here is my question/problem... I have a 90 crx that is lowered with some Neuspeed springs, and i'm pretty sure it has stock shocks or something close to. The problem is I feel every bump in the road. I was wondering is there a set of shocks that I should go with that would eliminate this or do I have to go back to stock height in order to get a smoother ride? Anything anyone has is much appreciated. Thanx for the help.

The shocks are probably blown if they're stock, so you're not getting any damping. First thing I would do is get some quality shocks on there, and then decide if you still want new springs.

Something like KYB AGX shocks will do nicely.

i wouldnt limit ride handling issues to just shocks and springs.

lots of things in the suspension can affect the ride quality like bushings, balljoints and wheel bearings.

you have to take the time to diagnose things and isolate the issues.

yeah, stiff and low drop springs will kill an old tired set of shocks. so thats probably a good start to look into changing. but then, those springs and shocks probably caused a lot of other damage to the suspension.

I would agree.Give the frt end a good "shake-down" and see if you have any worn/loose frt end parts.This can be the root of all kinds of frt end noises and clunks,thumps,etc...
Most likely your old struts are gone though.
