Default 1997 Accord Suspension

I am trying to pick up some Eibach Pro-Kit Lowering Springs.

I was wondering if there is a difference for 4cy and v6.

I am trying to buy a kit from a friend who has a 1997 v6. I was wondering if it would fit on my 1997 4cy.

The only difference I know if is for the v6 it is a 1.4 drop all around and 4cy is a 1.2 drop all around. I wouldn't mind an extra .2. Thanks.

I am also wondering how I can get that straight balanced gap all around.

I noticed stock, and the springs I have now, the front wheel well gap is about .75-1" more than the gap in the rear.

Anyone care to explain?


Bump.

With springs, most people find out that the car will almost always be uneven.

And yes, the V6 is heavier, that means that your car will be slightly higher than the V6-spec springs.
