well dude, the pro-kit isn't made to be low...when are you gonna understand that. If you want low go for the sportlines or the neuspeeds or h&r's. Not the pro-kit. the prokit is for those who don't want to sacrifice ride quality but still be a little lower.

and 2nd the prokit is really the only purpose made springs for the 3.0. Everything else is for the accord and the extra weight up front takes us down a little bit more hence my sportlines taking me down about 2.5 in the front

Exactly, pro kit is made to have a good ride with a suck ass drop and im that freakin low and i ride stock like that.......i'll bet you my car that it problaby rides better than the pro kit and i've never even tried it out...that's my word
(Exuse the loudness, but when it comes to my cars height, people think my ride sucks, but the matter of the fact is it doesn't)

your out of your mind to say your car rides stock. The neuspeeds have a high ass spring rate esp. in comparison to the pro-kit. I bet your car rides nice and you like it, personally i didn't like them, to stiff for most peoples comfort. They were a little stiffer then the sportlines and not quite as stiff as the GC's. I do alot of driving and even the sportlines will give me a headache after a few hours on a bumpy highway. I could only imagine how bad that headache would be w/ the neuspeeds. the pro-kit drop is very subtle. But the spring rates aren't much greater then stock. And personally the cool thing about the pro-kit is you could just MASH the SHIT out of the car w/o worrying about rubbing, something i know you suffer when trying to take turns real hard, something i suffer now w/ the prokit.

i miss be able to haul ass through the canyons on off camber turns

i'm sure your neuspeeds are great, just for the avg. person on this board they wouldn't like them. Most people bought there CL's to maintain some luxury and not make the car ride like a slammed civic, something you and i obviously don't give a shit about

Keep up the good work. Oh and i have the pro kits and its pretty low to me. My back fender almost touches tire and the front has like 1 inch to go. Looks good to me. rides ok too!

Looks good. If you check his sig he never claims to have a 3 inch (3") drop, so chill. He claims a 3 foot (3') drop :P

dude, even the pro-kit doesn't ride like stock, i bet your car rides nice and alot better then the skunk 2's (don't those sleeve coilovers suck, i hated the ground controls). But the springs are still stiff as shit and don't come clsoe to stock ride.


i'd say your down about 2.5
