Just do it the right way and save up for some cheap coilovers or some springs.

no way guys done be dicks let him hook up that mad tight kaa in his avatar yo!

just use a torch until its red hot in about the middle of the spring and then jump or push on top of the strut tower inside the engine bay to move the car down..to cool it fast so you can go out and race with our new lowered stance faster all you need to do is spray some wd40 on it good luck (hahahah)

Think about it this way, if you had a BMW would you melt the springs to lower it, probably not, just because it's a honda dont treat it different.

first off,i can tell you know jack about hooking up a car if you want to do something retarded as this! also, this is very dangerous because your springs will not react the same and if you heat the strut up it can explode!!!!!
