i just dropped my car yesterday. i didnt run into any problems like shineylite did . as i was installing the springs i was installing the camber kits also. drop looks sickk. not too low and not too high. unfortunatley i dont have a digi cam to take pics. i kind of have a problem right now tho. the steering is a lot more sensitive and the tires screetch when i make a turn or sumthing in safe speeds. are these two problems caused by the car not having an alignment done? would and alignment help? and sometimes when i hit a big pot whole or approach a tall drive way something there is a low thump. is that from the control arms bottoming out? appreaciate the help guys.

we need pics STAT, go get z3ro or pimp ravi, they got digicams. Also yes you should get an alignment asap man

chuckz

im not going to be driving the car for a week starting tomorrow. so i was planning on getting an alignment in about a week. i talked to pimpravi already and he doesnt have a digi cam. ill keep lookin around.

too bad you dont have a digi....Get a nice set of tires and you will no longer screetch..the sound you are hearing could be shot bushings..

chuckz

the weird thing about the screatching is i would take the same turns faster with stock springs and now with H&R's u wouldnt expect screatchin at lower speeds. what bushings might be shot?

looks good where did you get those eyelids from

98SilverSurfer

that setup is real sweet. rims r so phat too. I thought those were made for the 2nd gen cl

chuckz

people can't pull off black and chrome in minnestota?

i made the eyelids myself. wasn't too difficult but u have to be precise. i made them from vinyl. i just went to sign a rama and got some vinyl from them for free.

thoose aren't the ronjon rims. they are called epic or something.



thanks for all the compliments.

chuckz

i wish i had a digi cam. i would take better pics of the eyelids so you guys could see them better.

shineynitelite

i didnt run into any problems like shineylite did .


thats what i was talking about ^^

klepto

shoulda told me zia, i coulda taken some pics of whatever

chuckz

i appreciate it justin but i totally forgot.

chuckz

ic. that sucks that u did have problems. i was a little hesitant about installing the springs because of ur expreience but then i remebered u live in a snowy cold climate where corrosion is sumwhat common.

i ran into the exact problem u ran into shiney, its cause my cars from huntington beach and the salt in the air made things rust

DivineCL

Looking GANGSTA!

I'm definately going to get the taillight tint...just not that dark.
Have cops given you any problems?

CL Platano

Little dark its hard to see..

Acura3.0CL

Yea, how come all your picts are like B&W and freakin dark and hard to see?!?! BTW: what kit did you use? H&R what? how low did it drop the car? Did u get new shocks/struts also?? (lookin good man. Im in the process of the eyelids, blackouts and probably taillight tint now also..)

chuckz

i havn't had any troubles with the cops. (knock on wood).

the reason why they are kind of b&w is it the pics were taken when there was some overcast and it was taken with a cell phone. the quality of the pics came out good with the cellphone. as for the suspension i used h&r sports for the 94-97 honda accord. im riding on stock shocks (a little too bumpy) and i plan on putting opn some kyb gr2 soon.

DivineCL

Don't do it...save up for KYB AGX's. You can get them from ebay for $293.00 shipped.

just buy the AGX's for the front and the GR2's for the rear.....that's what i have and it drives like a champ

DivineCL

Smart man.
How are the streets in Canada?

chuckz

id be getting all four gr2's for $60. what do u guys think?

Acura3.0CL

Im courious about this too...im about to get Neuspeed Sports (1.5 F, 1.75 R drop) and I called up KYB, they told me neither the GR2 or the AGX would work with that low of a drop. I'd like to get the GR2 because their being sold with the springs (everythings new) for cheap...but with that low of a drop, would it be better to go with the AGX?? I just want a nice ride, and I know the agx is adjustable, but I think the GR2 would be a nicer ride?? maybe?? can anyone help??

some are good but there are some streets that give the CL a beating
