skunk2 makes an adjustable upper A arm for the EF's now.

skunk2 pro series should go as low anyone should ever want to go height wise

sorry bro, my first post was directed at the OP. haha lol.

to OP: if you want to slam the **** out of it just for looks, then go for it. if you expect it to handle well being that low...it wont.

If lowering it is your main goal, then get some cheap coilovers from ebay or go some Ground Countrol the will run you about $300 or so...

Look through the "slammed" cars thread. Find an EF and PM the person who owns it.

Hands down, GC/Koni Yellow/Extended top hats. Drop forks/arms if you can find em' too . No sense is spending a lot of money on a full body coilover then blowing them out in a week by being slammed. Just go perch springs.

by the fork arms your talking about the fork am on the bottom of the strut? right? wouldnt those affect the clearance around your axle? since they would be shorter?also where can they be found? also this is my first honda project and its going to be some sort of road track car when am done.
