What is everything that I need to lower my 99 lude non-sh. I need to know only the BEST parts! What is the best lowering height? Make me out your wishlist that you would do to your lude. Thanks, and have a beer on me!

 

Depends, are you looking for a street set or a race set? The sky's the limit here.

Peace

dude there are so many great options out there, you need to kinda be more specific. do you want to be able to adjust the height??? do you want to race it??? just street??? want to lower it a lil without "having" to get a camber kit??? do you want the wheels to "tuck" into the wheel wells??? etc etc....
OT: speaking of newb question, how do you change the name above your avatar?

 

you suck on one of the mod's left nut and ask him to change it or just do/say something really stupid and it's automatic. good lick, i mean luck.

 

Im not one for sucking on nuts, BUT I do say stupid **** all the time...luckily (or unfortunately in this case i guess) the computer has an edit button...

 

yeah.... or you could do something intellagent for once in your life and get one like mine.... they will not be nice lol

well, im not going to be bringing the car to the track. so i guess street. i dont want the tires to tuck under the wheel well because thats too low. i want it to look nice. im ready to spend anything. and i would also like the suspension to be good. dont want it to feel like im riding a goped. ill get a camber kit if i have to. sry for not being specific before.

TEIN SS yO!

 

Well now that Honda finished my warranty work I am about to put my H&R sport (1.4in. drop) springs and Koni yellows on with skunk2 front upper strut bar and rear lower bar (after having them in my basement for a year) and i'll let you know how that rides, supposedly i shouldnt need a camber kit with it, but i'll find out.
if you wanted it to be height adjustable i hear that teins are mad good too.

 

 

Mugen Showa suspension lowers the car exactly 1". Reputed to be the best compromise between street and track. It's on my wish list, but I'm a Mugen ****, so...It ain't cheap though.


OT: "Mugen is to Honda what Nismo is to Nissan, TRD is to Toyota, MazdaSpeed is to Mazda"- That's my quote, glad somebody agrees with me.

 

in that case, this would be my list:

if you want a nice street suspension:
1. TEIN SS coil-overs and shocks, camber correction kit, strut bars (you choice of brand)
2. a cheaper alternative, groundcontrol coil-overs, koni yellow or KYB AGX adjustable shocks, camber kit, strut bars.

if you want a seriously kick-*** suspension:
1. TEIN HA, plus other stuff mentioned above.
2. TANABE kit

 

I have also heard that the Mugen set up is the way to go.....not much harsher than stock and a suttle 1" drop.........Major cash though.

 

Call the guys at ground control they can get you what ever spring rate you want Tell them what your looking for and they will help ya out. Also, they will make sure to set you up with the right damper (shocks) to go with your set up.

 

I would get the TEIN Type FLE <U>X</U> ( ) w/ EDFC thats about to come out for the Prelude..... ...but man that is gonna be EXPENSIVE

type FLEW? ain't it type FLEX?

 

waht does EDFC mean? isnt it like Electronic Dampening something control?

 

Yep, you can adjust the ride height from the inside of your car. You can also save 3 or 4 ride heights in the memory so you can have one button for each type of driving. button 1-daily driving,b2-drag,b3autoX,b4(maybe?)show..... so nice .... but it's gonna cost somewhere around $1500-$1900 I bet it's worth it though....i'd still get it!
