i need to be lower though but my apt entrance is nasty. has a dip where the water runs on the street then shoots straight up. have a two layer parking garage under the complex. everytime i come on here and see the accords on here it makes me wish i would have kept mine. oh well this one is pretty quick

soo are you going to slam your ride or just drop it to a decent height?.....speedbumps rape slammed cars.... sideways/str8 over speedbumps is for normal drop height..just got to know how to work it

 

[minituck04]

i have a tl not a civic i will not be slamming it. you can see the pics of my car on page 3 if you havent already read through the whole thread. one finger gap all around. i prefer to be comfortable than shake myself to death. houston streets suck A$$

those are my babies right there in pg 3.. hahaha jk omnis ftw! but my ride is still kinda bouncy and i hate it..

mine not so much. but you have to remember your in a heavier car so that comes into play since those spring rates are for the TL/CL/ACCORD. the accord being the heavier of the 3 by 500 pounds and yes i am correct. the TL's curb weight is 3447 and the accord's is 3990.

I know for a fact that the Accord does not weigh almost 4000lbs, a 4 cyl 6th gen dry weighs just about 3000 even, and with a full tank of gas weighs about 3100lbs.
edit: and those numbers are for the automatics, the manual's weigh even less...

check that out that one is for 2g TL

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acura_TL

and this one for the 6thgen accord

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Accord


now unless the internet is wrong which it has been before the accord is heavier than my tl which is a bigger car. i always thought mine was heavier but that might be the reason that it is so damn slow

 

[minituck04]

and this place is says it weighs 3500ish pounds. might be talking bout the coupe i4 5spd
