your crv is awesome you know where i can find a vtec head for mine?

I went with the ff type 1's for the 98 accord (12k/6k) and they worked out pretty well with some civic extended top hats. I don't think there is enough dampening for the fronts though because when I go over a few bumps in a row the front will get a pretty mean bounce going. The rears are decent though. It will do for the short term though. Also the rears needed the bushing ground down but were long enough for direct fit.

take a look at my thread
https://honda-tech.com/forums/showth...3096091&page=1

I am using skunk2 pro S civic coilovers for my crv! currently waiting for 12k rate front springs to replace the 8k ones that comes with the proS coilovers, they are almost binded!

I will probably also need extended hats!

there are many companies who make **** for the crv. not sure why people can afford $800+ civic coilovers to hack up but cant afford stuff actually made for the crv.

H&R makes drop coils for crv and can be had for only $240 shipped. i have them on mine, i cut one loop off the top, front and rear and it rides like a dream with only 1.75 wheel gap left. using kyb gr2's but you could step it up and use agx's that they make for the crv.

if you want fullbodies BWR makes some for only $800 that bolt right on, no mods. i've seen at least 5 other companies who make them for the crv for under $1200.

and before i get the hate, i too have tried much of the stuff listed in this thread but save yourself the time and money and buy stuff thats made for the crv and stop doing ghettorigged setups, it rides alot smoother in the end with less headaches.

I've been looking at the D2 coil overs, and K sport coil overs, does anyone have any positive or negative experiences with these on there CR-V's? I've owned Buddyclub, TEIN, Skunk2's, OMNI, and APEXi, and CUSCO on some DC2, EG6 setups, but never owned K sport or D2...Really looking for some points of view.

K sport is good from what I've heard. I use ITR shocks with accOrd skunk2 coil overs

How has that combo worked for you so far? my concern is the weight issue, as a civic and integra weights less, there for spring rates might be to soft, and ride height an issue.

LDForget

rides amazing. the accord springs are a high enough spring rate that it can handle the weight. I usually have a **** load of tools and a massive sub box that takes 2 people to lift in the back too.

Cool, thanks for your input.

Up ! For people that have questions about coilovers

Skillachie

Which is a lot

I know this has been asked before and maybe even by me but, is there a energy suspension poly bushings kit for the 1st gen and where could I get it? If there's a different car I need to get the set from which is it? EK civic?

LDForget

Which bushings are you looking for?

dogbiscuit

as many as possible I would like to get front lca's/uca's sway bars rear lca bushings to all be poly.

would any of these Kits get me close to most of the things i'd need? seems like nobody makes 1st gen crv specific kits

Photos of your ride? i was thinking about just getting h&r springs since I didnt want to have to deal with fitment issues and modifications if I were to drop the car. Rather get something made for our car. And im using gr2s as well. But curious to see what yours looks like since you said you had cut a coil off yours. Thanks

Been running ksport pro's while I was slammed and now that Im lifted still love them and worth the money in my eye's direct bolt in 32 way adj damping.

this thread is a little confusing as we have:

Civic coilovers which is too soft

ITR coilover which rears are too short and still soft

Accord sleeves on civic front OEM struts and ITR rear shocks

Then ITR front with DSM rears (What year, make model DSM? DSM covers the whole lineup)


after searching around, I dont see any CRV coilovers. After reading, it seems the spring rate are 12frt/8rr is the right rate for the heavier crv..

least we forget, the 800lb difference for a civic is fine and could work for a crv. That extra weight would be a civic loaded down with passengers. Now when you use these for the crv, they are pretty much maxxed out. So adding people and extra weight to the crv will really **** these up.

Im wondering if 98-02 accord coilovers will work. theyre longer in the rear and have same mounting points as the ITR.

These yonakas are 12f/6r rate.

fastrunner45

What lift can we expect with ksport pro's?

Does any have a definite answer here on what shocks to use.

I know ground control makes crv specific applications you just have to call.

dscarps

You can either make one of the combinations they have listed previous, on almost any page through this project. I just read every post.

Or you can go here: http://www.tunersports.com/products....cturer=&page=1

Or you can go here: http://www.dsgperformance.com/fortun...over-honda-crv

I recommend the later, they are hand made in the USA, many happy customers, no grinding required.

BIG T

Does anyone know if accord shocks will work
