I am looking for lowering springs for my new TL. I do realize it's a new vehicle and they may not have made any yet. If anyone knows where I could get them I would grealy appreciate the reply. Thanks!

 

you already have one?
post pix!

 

I'd post pictures but im cameraless at the moment.


No thoughts? No ideas? Anyone know anything on where I may be able to get springs?

 

They've been hitting enthusiastic dealers for about two months, that I've noticed.

Some dealers still don't have any, but an "enthusiast" dealer in Woodbridge VA has three of them in stock.

 

I don't have any suggestions at the moment.

There are tiny differences between the SH-AWD 6-6 and the SH-AWD five speed automatic, and these differences include spring rates and suspension bushings.

This is why the 6-6 has the same sticker price as the automatic, even though in theory they saved about $800 in the costs by having the new six speed in place of the automatic.

My sincere counsel would be to wait until Eibach knows what it is doing with this brand new car. You might want to contact the Honda-Tech screen name vtecvoodoo, who works for Eibach. This is his profile: https://honda-tech.com/forums/member...fo&u=999297257

Remember, however, that at this stage of the game even the spring manufacturing companies might not be aware of the stock spring rates of the SH-AWD 6-6. You might even have to make sure that he knows that he has to find out.

Do you mind if I ask what you paid for the car?

Around here the dealers intend to plop a $1,000 market adjustment on them to see whether it flies or not. I don't think I'm going to do that. It's on my list of things to do in December of this year to see what kind of deal I can get on one, but if that market adjustment is still on there then I am probably not going to even talk to them. :-)

It also bugs me that they picked silver instead of the darker grey as the colour of the 6-6. Since the only other colours are black, white and red, this leaves an old man like me with the Palladium Metallic (silver). I'd really much, much prefer to have had Polished Metal Metallic (dark grey).

The last SH-AWD automatics with Tech Pakcage, of the 2009 model year are going for $38,000 or a little more. Under invoice. If you're looking for an automatic, these suddenly look like extraordinary deals.

 

Hey Guys,

I will share some info as soon as we get a car in for R&D. If any of you have one in SoCal, shoot me a line
