Hey guys, whats going on.
I have a 98 Acura CL3.0
I found that our parts are essentially interchangable when it comes to some of the internals and suspension parts. I'm looking for a 2" drop. Specifically looking for coilovers unless theres a better setup I'm unaware of. Just a note: I'm looking for a setup that can handle a v6 engine. a 4 banger setup wont ride as well. I was looking at Tein Basics but they had a price increase from 700ish to 820. I was fine with the 700, the 100+ increase is just ridiculous. So if there are any setups that I could get for under that thatd be great. If someone has any recommendations thatd be great. and my search didnt come up with what i wanted when I tried searching this forum.

Thanks guys!

 

You would look for parts compatible with an 98-02 Accord V6

 

I believe they would be from a 95-97 accord. not the 98-02. I'm trying to get suggestions for best drop, best feel. Thats all.

 

I stand corrected, the Accords changed body style in 97>98, however it seems the CL kept the same older style up until 99.

So yes, you'd be looking at a 95-97 Accord V6 suspension. And it's worth spending money on, you don't want to skimp out on suspension.

 

haha i figured, im not new to the CL, I've had it for a couple years now and have some mods under my belt, i just messed up and got wheels before drop. so now im looking for a good drop. tein went up in prices like ridiculously so im SOL right now. :[

 

Eh I paid $1000 for my setup. So 700 or so isn't horrible. Just shop around.

 

What are you sittin on?

 

Tokiko Illumina's and Skunk 2...

rails baby...rails

 

Koni Yellows and then custom rated GC's, it comes out to right about $850 then shipping so closer to 900$

 

how do those ride? smooth? like stock what?

and i wish i could drop 850 on a drop but i dont see that happening any time soon. some guy suggested skunk2's for 260. but i heard they ride horribly.
