I recomend the kyb's for daily ride comfort. You can find them on ebay for pretty cheap http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33590

What kind of struts are you running currently, I thought your car had a lower drop than pro-kit, it looks lower than a prokit drop.

Those KYB's seem to be for the 1990-1997 honda accord which is the 2.x parts clone. Are you sure they will fit the 3.0... i know that the 98-02 parts are more like the 3.0... i could be wrong tho.... if not thats a sick price i might pick some up myself!

2.x 3.0 don't matter, everything is the same. I have accord springs and struts in my 3.0.

I see, I knew that your car looked lower before.

Im interested but are they sport 1.75F/1.5R or race 2.2F/2.0R. I want the sports. If you are saying they are to low for you then I think they might be Race.
