I'm thinking of getting H&R sport springs for my 99 gs. Anyone have any pics of them matched with stock shocks as well as KYB AGX adjustable shocks.

Will there be any difference in looks? Will adjusting the shocks to different settings affect the look and height of the car?

 

ahhh, i have this setup, lowers nicely, smooth ride, i autoX on 1(hardest up front) and 4 softest in rear. works great for me, post your questions.

 

Not sure about the difference in looks, but there will be a difference in ride quality. The stock shocks may be too soft for those spring rates, so your ride could be bouncy.

 

yea it lowers it about 1.5 , its more in front than rear, on 4 setting around whole car*)(softest) its not bouncy but its noticable. it rides really good and im happy with my choice, of kyb over the other cheapo's toki..... whatevers

 

Adjusting the stiffness of the shocks won't have any affect on ride height. And they should have the exact same ride height as the stock ones.

And setting 1 is softest, 4 is stiffest - at least on my Prelude. I don't think it'd be opposite in their other applications.

Thanks for all the info guys,
Does anyone have pics with the H&R sports, preferably on stock tires, but anything will do, I just want an idea of thr drop,or if someone could say how many finger gap they have, yes I know we have different finger sizes, but it'll be a guestimate...
Thanks!!

 

My H&R+Koni setup w/ 205/50-15 tires. On stock shocks the back will not be this low. I set my Koni shocks to the lowest perch in back to even it out.

 

here are a few shots of mine. I have H&R Sport springs with Koni Sport (yellows) shocks. Looks like it's a green thing eh patrick? sorry about the crappy pictures, by the way

 

i do have pic as your requirement so....give me e-mail address i will send to you

PatrickGSR94: Is there a way to lower it more with either the stock shocks or the agx's as you have done? I did see oyur other post where you had pics of the before and after in the rear and it made quite a difference.

Are others have this issue too, that the rear is too high? By the pics, it seems like its alright....
Thanks again and keep them coming!!!

 

You can't change the height w/ the others, the Konis have different slots and c-clips for the spring perch to rest on, while the others have the perch welded to the shock body. The only way would be to cut the perch off of the shock body and weld it into a different position.

What perch did you use in the front, middle? I was thinking of getting the same shocks to use with my Eibach Pro-kit. Thanks, Jake.

1 is the softest and 4 is the hardest....auto-xn probably wasnt very good for you if you honestly thought that 1 is the hardest...
