Koni Yellows for the 90-97 Accord DO fit onto the 2.5TL... car does get lower by like.. 0.2"? (or it looks lower than the last time i saw my car)
just letting you guys know since i vaguely remember someone asking me if they fit or not...
and ill take pictures once if my car ever stops going back to the tranny shop...

So if you wanan replace your shocks.. Koni's fit along with tokicos... dont remember the part #

Part Numbers :
Front Set :8041-1185L Sport & 8041-1185R Sport
Rear Set : 8041-1168 SP4

Guess i now know what struts to get... (After my stocks give out) thanks to you man...

So the Koni's lower the car about 0.2" more... probably that is why my car doesn't feel or look as low as i thought it'd be with the 2.25" goldlines... Guess i need the koni yellows to complete the process...

well im guessing it lowered it by 0.2"... i know for a fact that it lowered the car enough to the point where i noticed it because the gap between the wheel and the fender grew smaller... *shrug*
it could've lowered the car more than i think it did though...

i think it was me who asked. anyhow you said you dont remember the part number but you posted up part numbers. im confused.

hmm, what perch are the koni's on? you could always lower the car by dropping the perch.

When you get the car back could you check to see if the brakeline bracket is on the front and where the dampening adjustments are in the rear?

thanks.

the shocks are slightly stiffer than the stock shocks, but not by much from what i could tell. They were doing quite nicely... and i enjoyed every minute of it, except i wish there wasnt so much body roll on the car when i drove it around... hehe

i think itd be nice to make it so when you jam on the gas the car wont tilt backwards

pi1996

demon rage, you are speaking in past tence; you don't have them anymore?
and the body roll was worse then with stock?

pi1996

well, it turns out that stock shocks are about $400 for a set of 4..

hmm..

Is there a big difference between the OEM and the Koni shocks? As far as the performance is concerned? I can get all 4 OEM shocks shipped for about $440.00.
I spoke to my machenic and he suggested that I should go with OEM shocks. The other ones are not meant for our TL and if the suspension is messed up, it will cost much more to fix.

well i did it cuz like people have done it in the past, but they never really posted how it felt with em on, so i decided to take a gamble and see if they really did fit and hwo the performed and such...
and i cant really compare OEM shocks because my OEM shocks were all shot before i even got the car....
