Default The ultimate 3rd gen suspension setup...

This is probably going to get deleted (I would have deleted it on my old site) but the classifieds just scrolls so damn fast so I wanted to try it here since I could really use the money.

I have a custom coilover setup for the 3rd gen consisting of:
- 4 shortened and revalved Koni Yellow shocks. (externally adjustable)
- 4 Ground control coilover sleeves.
- 4 Eibach ERS springs in the 450# rating.

I am looking for $1000 firm for the setup. I have more than that into the shocks.

All parts are brand new and have never been installed. This suspension setup is one of the most common setups used in SCCA IT road racing, Honda Challenge etc. and is a very competitive and affordable setup. I purchased the suspension in order to build a 3rd gen road race car but gave up on the car after finding a fully built Integra for a very good price. This would be a great setup for any 3rd gen owner into autocross, track events or road racing. The 450# springs would be somewhat streetable but it would be pretty stiff.

Dude, someone with a 3rd gen, please buy this setup... Help Brinson out, he had to shut is website down (hondaprelude.com) and is currently looking for another job...

Shortened shocks are awesome, you can lower a car pretty damn low (racecar height) and still have suspension travel.. This is really a great setup guys.. I paid over 1600$ for mine on my prelude (nearly Identical suspension)

I would jump on it - exactly what I'd be looking for if I had the cash. Doubt it will still be around, but May would be the earliest I would be buying. Sorry Chris, but I gotta graduate this college thing first.

If you still have them after SEMA Chris, I'd be willing to take them off your hands. If it weren't for heading to SEMA in a few weeks (going down with Texan), I'd pick them up now. Don't hold that setup off for me, but if you get no serious offers, let me know. I'll try and send ya an email as well. BTW, nice to see ya again.

Thanks for the help guys! 88SELude, I don't really know about the cost in the UK or shipping. If you don't mind doing some research though I would happy to ship it to the UK. I have a pic of the setup if anyone is interested. I just don't have anywhere to host it. Damn, things have changed!

Hey, how goes it Dustin? Definitely drop me an email if you are interested after SEMA.
