Suspension Suggestions for 6th Gen Accord [ '98 - '02 ]? Or anybody have one FS?
Man has it be a while since I visited the best place in the world [ talking about this forum of course ]. Last time I was here, I had a turbo 96 Integra LS.
Anyway, on to a more important and the reason why I am back.
I have searched through the Suspension section, and didn't find much regarding this, but if I missed something hit me with it. I don't want to start a topic that has been covered.
I just picked up a '99 4DR Accord LS. The car rides a little "bouncy" - it does have an aftermarket suspension but according to the guy the suspension was actually from a different honda [ something smaller than accord - civic or something ]. I don't know if those can be interchanged - guy could be wrong. Last time I was in a "bouncy" honda, it was due to bad lower tie bar?
So, I am in the search for a suspension setup. I like a "flush" look and would like to lower it enough to have that. I am noob when it comes to suspension. It would be great to have nice camber [ if I just made up a word, I am talking about when the wheel looks like it's a little angled ]. Or just a flush setup like : http://i38.tinypic.com/mj07j4.jpg
Let's set a budget at $1k
Anyway, any direction on this would be appreciated. ebay has about 20 different setups under $1k for an accord. If I can get away with a cheaper brand that does a good job, would be extremely happy. Or if somebody has one for sale, I'd be interested in chatting.
I have looked at the following:
Eibach SPORT-SYSTEM = $620
Megan Racing EZ Street Coilover Kit = $690
TOKICO Shocks = $400
Function Form Type 1 Coilover Damper Kit = $630
TOKICO ILLUMINA ADJ SHOCKS & SPRINGS = $520
RS Coilover System = $850
TANABE PRO S-0C = $780
KW Suspension Variant 1 = $1200
TEIN SUPER STREET COILOVERS = $1000
TEIN BASIC COILOVERS = $850
KSPORT KONTROL COILOVERS = $850
D2 RACING COILOVERS = $850
Function Form Coilover = $630
B&G Suspension Shocks Kit = $560
Any love/hate feelings toward any of these?

Were in Vancouver, WA. Check out our website. Were not too far south from you, and I have many accord guys that run our coilovers. I happen to be a accord owner myself
