I'm just seeking your honest opinions, so just hear me out... I have 2 questions.

1. What is the bad side of getting the Eibach Pro-Kit and keeping everything else stock as opposed to spending a little more and getting the Sportline with aftermarket shocks and struts? Will the better performance outweigh the costs?

2. I had the Pro-Kit on my 95' Accord EX, but I'm kind of scared to touch my 04' coupe's suspension, it just looks different for some reason... And for some odd reason, my shop wants $509 for the suspension work on my 04' coupe (and there's no way in hell I'll pay that much). I've checked around other shops and none of them were below $300. I am I just getting real bad luck with shops ripping me off or is there an actual reason why the newer accords costs so much? They also said that the labor would take 4-6 hours; My 95' sedan took 2 and a 1/2.

 

Spend the extra dough for the full setup. Worth the money if you plan on doing it AT ALL in the future.

 

first of all, buy the accord service manual and do it yourself...

if you can read and have full use of your hands and wrists, you can work on a car...

second, if you don't go this route, definitely get the shocks and springs at the same time...it will cost the same amount to have them both installed as it would to have just springs installed...if not, the shop is screwing you...also, if you decide down the road that you want shocks with your pro kit, it'll cost you another 300-500 to get them installed...do it all at once...

Finally, someone who shares my philosiphy (sp?)

 

i wish i can do it myself, but i just recently moved to a very small apartment with no access to a garage. i have absolutely no tools with me; jacks, jackstands, hell i don't even have a screwdriver anymore. so what i'm saying is that i'm basically limited to as of right now is finding a shop to do my work for me.

 

Shop around then and definitely do the entire setup in one shot, one kill. Save you from spending the same amount twice.

 

Thanks for all your inputs. I'll just wait a little bit and save a little more money to do everything all at once.
