Thanks for the info, does it ride decent?

philipsajerk

It rubs whenever I turn or hit a bump, but its pretty stiff.

Ryan97

Oh alright cool atleast i know now what suspension works i really appreciate it again seeing as no one else seems to say yes or no haha, hopefully ill have some pictures of the TL on here soon, gotta stop dumping money into my civic

Made 430hp and ran a 10.90 @132, not too shabby for a street car.

philipsajerk

Damn, looking nice on that civic

Looks legit as hell, although I wouldn't have went so low.

haha I haven't been on here in a while. I almost bought some omni power coilovers for my 96 2.5 but they are sold. I am now looking to purchase some TEIN basic coilovers for a prelude for decent price.

Funny how I was in question about spring rates for stock oem 2.5 springs when I found this thread page as a result on google. I fricken LOVE you used FF1 coilovers when so many dropped TLs are just springs. I found a lot of useful knowledge of the 2.5 being compatible with the 94-97 accords on here and was determined to just get some full body 1pc coilovers based on this information to dump mine.

So the debate I've seen most is making sure of spring rates of other cars vs 2.5 because of the heavier car. When using aftermarket springs/coilovers, the spring rates are higher anyways so why does it matter. So if the accord is 200F 175R and the FF1 is say 600F 400R, that will handle the weight difference I would hope. Accord about 2850 vs 2.5tl 3200lbs?? so not a big difference and spring rates can be changed.

17s look so right on this car! I plan to get some 17x7 RSX s wheels for daily use until my del sol is drivable again. Then I can put out the cash for some nice 2 piece wheels.

Thanks guys! Adrian right? My boy Long Pham says he knows you aha

TheDamianLyons

bring back an old thread, but would those work for the 3.2tl, 98. ive heard that the 2.5 and 3.2 have different suspension.

DailyTSX

How much adjust-ability is there as far as height goes? I had them on an old Accord but just dumped it and left it, not sure I want to be that low anymore

philipsajerk

It wouldn't work for a 3.2. And i'm not sure on the adjust-ability, i just swirled it all the way down and left it like that since

philipsajerk

Did a wash and decided to do a little shoot since it was such a lovely day

main70072

204TL

late post but, hey phillipsajerk the suspension you got are for a honda accord? 90-98? are they direct bolt one? or do i have to mod a bit? let me know thanks.

204TL

Vip style & hellaflushed for the win! Low and slow for show.

philipsajerk

Direct bolt on for only 2.5 tls only

204TL

glad i have a 2.5 then! your tl's the best ive seen so far bro, i got your car as my wallpaper too ahah. OH YA! the picture when you had stock wheels on and slammed it on the ff1's was that the max setting? or could it go way lower then that?

DecaFe1

late reply but yea I know long. I think I met you before...you work at sweet tomato? I went in to eat there and I was wearing my autofashion shirt and you asked me about it and I said I drive a 3g and you said 1g....if that was you I think your car was stock then

02type-s

Goddamn, nuts for static. Fitment on point too. Prolly sucks to drive it tho haha

philipsajerk

God damn, that was you? crazy. LOL! i was just a little cashier then.. Come to the mountain view store for free meals though, just lmk

philipsajerk

And yeah the picture with stock wheels are when the coils were maxed out without messing with the pre-load.

204TL

phillipsajerk, quick question. i slammed my 2.5 tl when i come to a stop seems like the motor vibrates through the whole car more etc? my cars the same height as yours just wondering if you are experiencing the same problem, thanks

philipsajerk

Could be warped rotors?

204TL

heres a pic how low it is, rotars seem to be good also.. maybe its to low?

mpla1506

philipsajerk

Theres no such thing as too low

1997TL-P

oh Phil you are a jerk....................dude that is bitchin. I can only imagine the rubbing sensation you have going on under the wheel well. I was going to go for that look but I couldnt find any with big lips on them? CLEAN

mpla1506

sorry to hear that. fucking scumbags these days. Still lookin clean af !

russell707

Clean af tl. I like it better with the ssr's. Do u replace your axles often?

HP11

A couple of things: He probably won't answer as the last post before yours in from last August. Do you seriouly like that look? To me, it looks like hell and can't be at all good for the car running the wheels cocked like that. But, as they say, to each; his own.
