A good set of tires is one of the best upgrades you can make as well.

 

well so far i put in some monroe struts since they were free, i also lowered it 1.5 with some springs frm ebay, and like i said in the beging post, both rear/front upper sturt bars, rear lower tie bar, oh and i also have the front camber kit since the camber was at negative and jst bought some camber shims for the back. i wanna upgrade my suspension as, much possible before going into engine work. oh and i dont want coil overs, im not too fond of them, dont trust em

 

Those struts won't do you a whole lot of good except for being new. You'll still want to get something better for that drop.

The ebay springs won't help you much either, except hurt ride quality (depending on the company, if they are "ebay generics" then my point stands).

You don't trust coilovers? What kind have you had experience with?

why dont you trust coils...as long as you get good quality ones you have nothing to worry about

 

yea i know about the struts jst being good cus theyre new haha and yea im trying to find advice on some good struts for the drop, springs im planning on getting some megan racing or skunk 2s or eibachs. idk jst the fact that i drive a lot and since theyre adjustable i dont want the adjuster to snap/brake during a drive and end up having to buy more

 

Might as well go with the eibachs. Much better ride than the skunk2's or ebay crap. Tein would work too, along with a few other name brands.

How many cases have you heard a quality coilover "adjuster" break on someone? I could see worrying about it for the ebay stuff, but not the good stuff. How many miles are we talking here?

 

^^^whats wrong with skunk2 springs (which just happen to be up for sale now due to me now riding on coils)....i never had a complaint and im happy i went with them over the teins

but yea...quality coils wont break (including form and functions)

 

Nothing is really WRONG with them, except they don't usually have the ride quality of other springs (including Tein).

You will find that many people that have had skunk2 springs/coilovers and other brands (ground control, Eibach, Tein, H&R, etc.) will prefer the others if they had the choice.

So feel free to go with them, just don't expect anything to stand out about them.

 

hmm alright ill check out the eibachs. wel i never heard of anything bad, i jst worry to be honest, but since u guys bring up good points i think ima check out the coil overs. i drove about 40k since last october wen i first got it

 

Yeah you put some pretty good miles on it then.

With you putting that much seat time in, I'd definitely say get the best springs/struts you can afford. Your back and butt will thank you later and you'll enjoy driving the car much more.

 

one of the first things that should be done is all ball joints get replaced..upper control arms and lower ball joints and tie rods in the front for sure. old hondas ball joints really like to go bad. i had a tie rod ball joint break on me while driving..didnt go so well lol. but a whole kit with all ball joints on ebay is only like 100 dollars so i would get that done then go with a full energy suspension bushing kit

 

yea i do haha well ima check out some coil over kits, i found a megan racing kit for 880 and im thinking on going with those since theyre a tad affordable

yea i replaced the inner/outer tie rods a few months back. im trying to find after market upper control arms but im having no luck, lower control arms are being bought next pay check though XD. those bushing after as well haha

 

You realize you could get Ksport, Tein Basics, or Function & Forms for cheaper and they are MUCH better? That was just on ebay.

 

really now? do u have any links to these?? haha

 

I just told you, go to ebay. I searched '95 honda accord coilovers' under the motors section.

You can take a look at some other sites to see if their prices are better. You could check out the Honda-tech marketplace as well.

 

oh yea haha thanks man, ima check it out
