i got a big problem with my ride suspension. i want to lower it but the only way i go is to use a coilover kit. because my front height is 4 inches from d tires and on d back around 2-2.5 inch and its very soft. i already got a quote from pedders with there "k-sport coilover kit" for $1800 fitted, coilover itself is $1400. but i found another coilover kit from otomoto they give a qoute with there HSD HS series with the same price. now my question is which one is better? and which one is worth putting to my accord? and is there any other option i use??? please help me......:confused::confused::confused:

Firstly give Jdm Yard (Traders here) a Ring and enquire about what they can/will get in for you.

Secondly Skunk2 should have something for you (+1 suggested for if you dont plan to track car) Check US Ebay :)

Thirdly Pm Bennjamin to get it installed and after just to get your wheel alignment done @ a Tyre shop

Fourthly and biggest thing, Good work on the Budget (most people expect to spend alot less)

i already saw some skunk2 sport strut about $750 austrlian dollars delivered to my door. n now im looking on NEUSPEED Race Springs which can drop to 2.25(f) & 2(r). is there any other option like for spring so i dont have to get everything from US?

IMO you would be better getting coilovers.

The Skunk2 Shock+Spring was nice but id rather full adjustability.

Like i said contact Yonas @ Jdm Yard or even the Traders here :)

haha under "marketplace" section, look under traders, should be the subsection 6th one down..."JDMYard". his nick is "EG5"

depending on your future plans - if you're happy with set shock spring combo, and would not likely be adjusting height every now and again, you should be right. neuspeed race springs lower your car quite a bit already, just do some research online and see how much clearance it leaves you.

i've tried koni yellow shocks and neuspeed springs combo, and its great for street - with dampening adjust, and it was custom height adjustable...although not the same level as coilovers and more hassle to do so (would have to take it out of the car to compress spring, and adjust clips).

on the other hand coilovers are cool...and offer full, easier adjustability as above...you pay more for that though...

good luck

well in the long run i just want car suspension to be more better, both in looks n performance. if i can get decent set o spring n strut thats fine with me, but if the coilover if the better option (which is d best option compare to spring n strut) ill see how i go and ill let u guys know.
