well i installed my suspension this weekend a 2 hour job turned into a 3 day job. not going to mention any names but there were bolts stripped left and right grrrrrrrrrr. it took 5 hours to get one of the bolts off after i cut and then tryed to drill into it nothing worked so i had to cut the shock just to get it out. but on a good note i love the suspension the handling is GREAT and the ride is very smooth. i have to adjust my coilovers the way it is set right now my car has a 4'' drop and it still rides very smooth. VERY NICE suspension i wish i could buy one for everybody. also installed my exhaust and headers very big diffrence. i have to get an alignment and it needs to be dynoed but wow what a diffrence even untuned. i cant wait to go to the track!

 

sounds like it became alot harder then it should have been.Congrats!

 

yeah unfortunatly but that always happens to me. it all turned out for the better

 

yea that happened to me when i dropped my car the lower shock bolt ceased in the bushing ...so i had to cut the shock to get it out ...and the same happened on my boy civic coupe ...what did you have your hatch dropped with before ...or was is stock height?

 

i had tokico illumina's

 

the car rides great with the new suspension

she has the full tanabe sustec pro S-S suspension

 

Damm shock bolts **** me off. Same old thing, my drivers side rear lower shock bolts head snapped off and stuck inside the socket as well. It was like that stupid bolt had welds on it. The good old drill came out to finish the job, Then Honda parts was closed so me and my friends looked at each other stupidly with no bolt to put in its place so we started drinking and waiting for parts to open.

 

cool ...i love my tokico illuminas with my ground control setup ...but if i ever have a problem im either goin to get H&R's or the tanabe's ...

 

i highly recommend the tanabe!! i love it. i had my tokico's for about 8 years....and they still work a little worn but they work.

hahaha i have a home depot bolt holding my shock in......ill be damned if i was going to wait 2 days for honda to reopen.

 

lol ...my bo with the coupe drove for 2 days witht eh broken bolt still stuck in the bushing ...that thing wasnt goin nowere though ...
