Hey guys I want to drop my 96 4dr accord but I dont know what kinda of stuff to get. Should I go coilover or springs, how often does anyone change there ride height on coilovers on there accords. What is the average drop on an accord to get rid of the wheel well gap with 17" already on. I have been looking at Ground Control Coilovers w/ Koni yellows or KYB agx what do some of you guys recommend. I am looking for a nice smooth ride with performance when conrnering fast

 

h&r cup kit

 

Is it just me or I've been seeing about the same topic regularly. Anyway, i'll try not to be a a**.

If your budget is:

< 600: Springs kit + Shocks: H&R / Neuspeed / or Eibach + KYB AGX, Tokico Illuminas 1.5" drop kit,

600 - 900: Coilover: Ground Control + Tokico Illuminas / Koni Yellow / KYB AGX.

> 900: Full Coilovers: Tokico RAK501, Apex'i, Teins, Tannabe, HKS, etc

> 1,500: Air Bag or Air Cylinder

Basically, the Lower your ride is, the faster you'll corner. so 2" + is okay. But that'll slam your car pretty low if you have a kit. And it hurts a lot with pot holes, etc. Moderate droping about 1.25-1.75" is average for regular daily driving.

I'm not the expert at suspension, try to ask around, there's a WHOLE bunch of them in here.

 

Not always true.

 

neuspeed race springs, koni yellows and a camber kit

 

Both H&R and Eibach are recommended. I don't have much experience with H&R, but the components Eibach makes is pretty damn good.

 

that's why i said basically. there're some exception to certain extent. I tried to simplify for the guy.

 

love my eibach sportlines

 

:werd: me too
it really depends on where u live, ur roads and how u want ur car too look. my car has the slammed look to it even without a kit on my car since my fenders touch the top of my tires for that tucked look however with NYC streets i'm always afraid to crack my oil pan or tranny block so sometimes i wish i could raise my ride up a little but it wont ahve the same look so i keep my height (2.75-3" settled all around)

 

Sorry to be a newb, but do i need to buy shocks and springs to lower my car, or just the springs? I am thinkin of going with these eiback sports you guys are talking about.
