anyone??

mmm.

K-mac should be able to make you springs for the car that are tailored to your needs (height+KG setting)

I'd personally recommend you look into shocks if you are lowering though (i think there are some but do the homework as blown shocks SUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK)

why? ...

To improve the rocky boat handling.. And to make it look better..

I'd try taking your question over to www.hondasuv.com - mostly rice cars at Ozhonda, but that other site is more oriented towards Honda SUVs.
