Can someone walk me through, step-by-step on how to lower my 7th gen accord EX V6 Automatic about like one inch?

Also would I have any troubles on going over humps or ramps if I lower it one inch?

 

if you lower your car about an inch then no you wont have to worry about speed bums or anything like that. here is a step by step that i used on my 5th gen. should be the same of similiar for your 7th gen.

if you havent had any springs in mind for your 1in drop you should go with the eibach prokit. they lower 1.2 all around

a question though...wont messing with your suspension void your warranties?

 

throw about 500 pounds of lead in your ride. instant lowering!

 

There are a number of options here, do you want springs? Do you want shocks and springs? Do you want a coilover set so that you can manage how much drop you are having?

If you want springs, Tein H Tech's are your best bet. I think they are 1.3" in front and .8" in the back. With that, you won't need to get aftermarket shocks for awhile.

If you want coilovers there are a hundred different options, but most 7th gen owners go with Tein Basic's or another Tein product.

You won't need a camber kit because it isn't that much of a drop. Step by step is a little difficult, and if you don't know how to do this, you will need a mechanic to, because you need a spring compressor, some space, a jack or lift, yadi yadi.

Let me know if this helps or if you need anymore.

 

How much would it cost to have a mechanic lower it for you an inch.

 

It wouldn't be a question of that, it's almost the same amount of work as lowering it 3 inches.

Depending on the shop I could see them charging 300-500

 

Sorry I missed this thread, but I got your PM. It only cost me 100 because I went to a shop because I didn't have a spring compressor, lift, air gun, etc, and I was helping the mechanic out.

It's only a 3 hour job unless the mechanic is completely incompetent, if he's good it can take them 2 hours. That's just for springs it'll take roughly 2 hours. I'm not sure about coilovers, because I haven't done them, but I assume its no different, because you're taking apart the whole assembly just like I had to.

Although if you're doing springs, letting the springs shoot off across the garage is pretty enthralling.
