Hi everyone I've currently got pedders sports ryder lowered springs on my CD5 just wondering whether to get some yellow konis or to go for a set of coilovers or if anyone has got the pedders sports ryder shocks and what they think. Just heard a lot of people with trouble with coilovers so just thinking that upgarding the shocks maybe the way to go. Any advice would be greatly appreciate. Pros and cons of each would be great.
Cheers.
It would really help if you stated what you are trying to achieve with car.
Just want to get some better handling without comprising too much on comfort (i konw that asking a bit much) just don't want a really hard ride. Not going to go to the track every weekend just want some better handling on the road. Cheers.
coils
Koni's. Because chances are if you buy coilovers you'll get something shit.
get yourself a decent brand of coilovers, not some cheap ebay special
What brand of coils would you go for?
And why would you lean towards coils over the koni's?
Well if you want more adjustability both damper and height then go for coilovers as your range of adjustment is far more than Shock and Springs :)
I had that problem having Koni Yellows and KG/MM Springs, decent setup but not adjustable enough, far too low for my liking. Mind you this is for EG so not sure about Accord lol...
Do you have a budget in mind?That will help for better advice.
Too general asking koni's vs coilovers....
If you want the heigh adjustability, then go for coilovers. It's their selling point, and if you just get some shocks and springs but some part you wants the height adjustability you'll be kicking yourself later on.
Something below $1500 but also realibility heard alot of people saying that they needed rebuilding after a year and leaking ect so just looking for the best option to gain a bit of handling performance without going crazy on suspension.
Cheers.
I'm not too worried about height adjustability i can't really go any lower than i am right now with the lowered springs and stock shocks otherwise i'll smash my bodykit. Will the koni's retain the height that i'm at now or will they be lower?Quote:
