What Suspension
well i'm fed up with the suspension on my car. Bouncy, bottoming out (yes it started doing it ;( ), the car is not glued to the road anymore. What will be a good setup (Shocks and springs). I don't care too much about the drop, but i would prefer something up to 1.5". I don't wanna messu with a camber kit yet. It will come in the summer. Also i wanna keep my 14" wheels (they are not steelies) and go wit a tire that's like 205/70/r14. Do you think i will get any rubbing with a 1.5 drop ? The offset is a bit too much, i mean the wheel are on the same line with the fenders.
|
how wide are you wheels?
The Prokits/Agx combo is tried tested and true.. Thats what I'll be going with. |
right now i have 185/70/r14 (stock size)
eibach prokit ? any links ? how about this ? http://modacar.com/honda/frameset_su...kage_honda.htm option 1 or 2 ? |
also i do not want spomething that will kill my pocket.

yep, i might need to buy a spring compressor, but i did it before on cars without a spring compressor.

LOL ok.. Its mad dangerous without the compressor.. |
Don't buy a spring compressor, just rent one for the job. That'll save you some money.
Well if I was going for a mild non-height adjustable drop, I'd probably get the prokit/agx or prokit/koni yellow (expensive). I'm sure you'd be happy with that. www.groupbuycenter.com had a deal going where you get agx and prokit for $xxx (don't remember). |
I think its worth the extra 75$ or so for the Prokit/Agx setup.

Stefan...
When Vincent and myself were going to drop his 92 Accord Lx we went down to autozone to rent a spring compressor. They said you can pay 20 bucks to rent it or 20 bucks to buy it. So we of course bought the dang thing. The spring compressor isn't going to hurt "kill your pocket". :)

still can't find them. i found some AGX shocks at the local auto parts store but they sell for like 50 a piece. think they are just the stock height. don't know. anyone with more links ? Dave-o i think i'm gonna buy one compressor. |
ya know i alwasy see people with the same shocks.. AGX, Koni, and Tokico.....
Well im running GAB shocks that were brought it from Japan and they are the by far the best i've ever had.... i've had koni adjustables but these have way surpassed it in my opinion... The GAB's are 8 way adjustables and ride great... So my reccomendation is get GAB shocks....:yes: |

You imported them Tony?? I didnt even know they made hardware for Accords.. |
Quote:
yea i brought them in... i love them... they are soo worth the money.... not just that but now im different from everybody else!! :yes: i have not seen anyone or even heard of anyone having my shocks here in eastern ontario.... so yes bonus for mee woo hoo... i didnt think they made any for our cars either buuuuuut..... ;) |
MAn I'm starting to get a little jealous of you..
hook up for this hook up for that... Nobody wants to hook me up, unless I setup for competitions.. :mad: :| |
how does pro-kits with KYB sounds ?
AGX is ajustable right ? In what sense it is adjustable ? like height wise or toughfness ? just curious |
|
ok so what dhall i choose ? KYB or Tokiko ? AGX i think is too expensive
I have to get a new suspension right away. |
what about sportlines ?
|
Sportlines are good springs. Eibach knows what they are doing.
|
Also, what are you looking to spend overall? 500-600?
|
actually i lowered the price to 400-500
|
Hmm... well that REALLY limits you, but maybe go with Koni reds and prokit... I think that's just slightly over $500... or just save a little while longer and get something much better.
