Default Lowering

I'm finally gonna drop my ride in about a month. I am looking for the best method in my price range. I wanna spend around 450.00 but i'm willing to up to about 600.00. I saw this groupbuy on ebay. I would like to know what you all think about this setup and is this a good price.... http://www.groupbuycenter.com/buy.aspx?id=8292

Also, i wanna get some opinions on Neuspeed sports and Tokico blues. I can get these installed for $560.00 out the door. It's for a 2001 Accord LX 4dr.

I recommend a stiff spring. Neuspeed Race Springs are too soft as are most non-coilover springs. V6 model Eibach prokits are nice and stiff and will work well on a 4cyl Accord if you want a stiff non-coilover setup.

Skunk2 coilovers are VERY stiff and work great on a heavy accord. You'll love it. Plus you can adjust your ride height. You can find them for roughly 250-300$ new.

If you're going to go Tokico.. blues do not work well on slammed Accords. I recommend Illuminas 5-way at the least or a nice Koni yellow which works well with heavy slammed rides.

Good luck!
