I have a 97 Prelude and I was told that the 96-2001 springs would fit it fine. But a freind has a set of 95 springs.

Are there any major differences between the 95 and 96 springs to where this swap wouldn't work???

I've seen you ask this all over the place and never answered 'cause I don't know. Well you're an engineer so you know the main variables with springs are length, diameter, and spring rate. Hopefully you can find these specs for the average spring package for your car and for the 95 Accord springs your friend has, perhaps from the spring vendor or manufacturer.

 

well here is the problem, stock accord springs are considerably softer than prelude springs even though they are shorter in length, you would be better off getting H&R's or eibachs

 

thanks for the info!!
