hey NITTANY1 your ride looks phat, i just got the sportlines for my 2001 accord sedan. i was interested in the tokico blues but i heard there not recommended for a drop of more than 1.5 inches. how are the struts holding up? any problems? how's the handling? what kind of a driver are you? you just cruize or do you sometimes race and things like that. i plan on purchasing 18's with them. also, so you don't have the alignment kit right? anyway nice ride.:frog:

Bruzer...man I would hook you up but there's a problem. I got em from a friend who had a friend who worked in a Wholesale Motorsports store and that's how I got the hook up. The thing is, the guy who worked at the Wholesale Motorsports store got fired and now I can't get that kind of hookups anymore. My boy John still has really good prices and shit and the guy is cool as hell. His website is http://www.krazedkustomz.com/

He doesn't have anything on it yet but there's an e-mail address and maybe and you can talk to him. I repeat, he can't get you the Koni's for $90, so don't bust his balls about it. Tell him that Brad sent you and he should give you some pretty good prices.

So far I haven't had any trouble with anything with the struts, however my left rear spring collapses and I have a new set on the way. I don’t really race that much, I like to go stoplight to stop light from time to time and just picked up an AEM CAI but haven't taken the time to put it in. I REALLY wish I would have gotten some 18s or 19s, but I wasn't thinking, but watch out for potholes though. O yeah and there isn't an alignment set, the guy who put them on said that I didn’t need it but tirerack.com strongly recommends it. so I'm not sure if I should get it, tell me what you think.

Hey Nittanys1, personally i wouldn't get the alignment kit if the guy who gave you the alignment is saying it isn't necessary. just have it checked every three months and check for tire wear every month. yea i'm definatly getting 18's, possibly 19's if the money right. those are great pics of your ride, is there more of a gap in front than in the back? doesn'
t look like it in the second pic which is what i want, if so i will cut a coil in front to make it more even.

Well the back spring in calapsed so that why it look lower, the norm gap is two fingers in the front and on finger in the back. I WOULDN"T CUT YOUR SPRINGS it will mess your ride up and void your warenty. and the sicond pic was a better shot bacause it was on level ground and I was too, but the right side looks alot better because there is nothing wrong with that side. I'll try to have a pic up but my camera is dead so i dunno when i'll be able to.

Bruzer...nah man, you don't really need a camber kit unless you lower your car more than 2", which on and around what that setup will drop your car. Now if you get coilovers, then I would suggest getting a camber kit. I'll let you know if there's anything going on with John.
