Re: 02-CG-01 Accord. Progress from stock to modded.

Going to finally order my pair of Koni yellows w/ Ground Control tonight from a venfor off honda-tech. Seems like a pretty good deal.

$987 I think that should be a good price. Anyone else want to comment ?

Good news everyone. I just placed an order on my Koni Yellows and my Ground Control sleeves. Grand total was 969.40, seems like a good price for a brand new suspension set up. Next off is getting some damn new wheels. Sucks 4x114.3 bolt patterns are only a limited amount to choose from.

Yes, you should have bought a set of F2's for about the same price.

The GC's/Yellows is still a good combination, but for that price, you were better off getting full coilovers.

Enjoy the new setup though.

Be sure to put a review in the Suspension Review Thread.

Yeah I was debating myself with all different types of full coilovers, but I was leaning more towards the koni's.

Can't wait to get them on. And I will do.

You could have spent like 80 more dollars and got FF2.5's or Tein SS. Never would I pay that much for suspension that is not full coilovers, but that's just my opinion. I hope you enjoy your setup and I can't wait to see some pictures.

Yeah that's true. But I should be happy of how the Koni + Ground control rides. Don't know if it's any different in Civics/Integras, but they ride pretty smooth.

My WTB thread i was looking for 3 types of suspenions. Koni, Ksport, or some f2 type 2.

I guess I was leaning more towards the Koni's because of their warranty and I am a bit more comfortable with Koni's than I am with the other suspensions.

By sometime at this end of the month, I should have some new Mud Flaps and my car lowered.

By sometime in the next 2 months, I should be sitting on some new wheels and have a rear window spoiler on.

So my question is.....why do so many people like mudflaps?

I don't know. I just like em because it adds a little look to the exterior and also, last week when I washed my car, the side of my rear bumper was covered in mud and I guess some mud flaps would have been a bit useful.

I suppose.

I think mine only came with the front ones, and once the lip kit was purchased, those got tossed.

Reminds me of Rally Cars with all four flaps.
