Koni Yellows and front strut bar
I searched on this before I posted...
Did anyone change out their stock strut bar after realizing how fucking hard it is to adjust the Konis with it in place? Im seriously considering it, since id like to play around with settings more now. I've heard DC Sports makes crap, so am looking at Cusco now. What do you all have? Thanks!

Acura 2.3 CL: I guess it depends on how the Teins are adjustable. For the Koni's, they are adjusted by a small flat metal extension out of the top of the shock, accessible in the engine bay/trunk. The left front just happens to be right underneath the strut bar, making it impossible to adjust with the knob supplied by Koni.
VXCL: I keep pliers in my glovebox too
I guess i'd just have to see pics of some aftermarket bars installed in Accords/CLs.

it does affect it... just use ur fingers to turn the knob... you probably want to get some washers to raise the right side of the strut bar since for some reason that one fits lower than the left side... I just put a few washers under each bolt and it worked out fine... when i adjust the shocks i just turn the knob with my fingers... no need to use that hex key knob.
