eibach sportline

I currently have the pro-kit and looking to upgrade to the sportline. I was told that the sport's for the 2.2 and 2.3 will fit the 3.0 is this true. Any suggestions...Thanks

i dont think so, from what i believe the spring rates are different because the weight of the cars is diff (v6 vs. i4)

No Sportlines made specifically for the 3.0 (checked www.eibach.com ).

I think your drop would be lower if using the 2.2/2.3 Sportlines on the 3.0 (plus I'm not sure how the ride quality would be up front--extra weight from the heavier engine).

weight difference would be the key try seeing if they make them for the 98-00 accord v6 maybe, hope they do thats what i wanted to use but im leaning towards a coilover setup maybe ground controls, i like the stiffness

i have the sportlines on my 3.0, and all i can say is the car is f'ing LOW!


check this picture




the front end sits about a half inch lower then the pic after settling. Also the front end isn't as stiff as it should be for reason that the spring rate isn't high enough, but I fixed most of it by replacing a few bushings in the front end. But the car is definately pretty damn low.



97 Acura3.0CL, stay away from ground control, save yourself and put out the extra bucks and get the tein full coilovers for 850$. By the time you get shocks and the GC's you will be at the same price.

Nice...What other brand of springs (good quality) will give me about 2' drop?

Get a pro kit and the adjustable Konis w/adjustable perch - that will get you slightly in between the pro kit and the sportlines
