yeh will do - that's an interesting point about the number of springs.
I had a look at stock last night and I'm pretty sure there are 10 at front while the Spoon has 14
And just to confirm - the springs which are more tightly packed together go at the front? Or have I got it the wrong way around?
can usually tell which is which by eye
the left two, are the front ones
the right two, are the rears
generally the thicker ones go on the front, for our cars anyway
Thanks mate - yeh, I wasn't too sure when I looked at them (feel like such a noob lol :))
I'll try and get some before/after shots before install too
Honda quoted approx $350 or so for lowering springs installation - guessing I could get it cheaper elsewhere as always more expensive at dealerships yeh?
I think off memory the guy was saying they charge something like $120 per hour!
ALSO, got a quote on the Spoon dampers $817 + $110 shipping to Oz - doesn't sound too bad to me... what do you guys think?
350 sounds about right, take's a while to get the springs off and springs back in
total of about $925?
I'd be wondering if they were better than koni yellow's or not since they can probably be had for about the same price
Wassup. Mac @ Fortyone here. The guilty party =] Any Q's just PM me or email us! Koni is no problem either Alvis!
Could you tell us the main differences between the Koni Sport (yellows) and Spoon dampers? And does one provide a more firmer ride comfort than the other?Quote:

valved for different spring rates, I mean
there's a good $300 odd price difference between the Koni and Spoon as well...
Fortyone - can you give me some more details on Koni Sport vs Spoon dampers? I've also read the Koni is adjustable whereas the Spoon is not?
