Pixelharmony's TSX Dropped
First off I'd like to thank moda_way for taking his time and working on the coilover installation for me. Everything went smoothly and was done in 3:30 hours (coilover and Ingalls camber). I'd also like to thank TSX.fury for selling me these beautiful coilovers at an awesome price!
Parts:
Buddyclub N+ Coilovers
Ingalls Rear camber Kit
Here are the pictures after the installation, prior to me adjusting the height and getting proper alignment. I also have some pictures of moda_way's TSX as well.

Here are some pictures after I adjusted and aligned my car. I'd have to say adjusting the ride height was a little tougher than I expected. I ended up doing a two finger gap all around.

Yeah, pardon my dirty wheels too!! Your car looks good!!!
I should've removed your hood prop. I didn't even think to do it once we popped the hood.
I was shocked but this was the easiest set of camber kits to install. The bolts came out so easily, unlike mine and CKcentral's, it was a bit of a battle on ours.

I'm glad the install went well yesterday, I would've felt so bad if we ended up taking 5 hours on it.
Yeah my car is a mess too, I'll be sure to get a porter cable and try my best to detail the car.

Two-finger gap looks perfect. Sooner or later, I'm sure I'll get to lowering my car a little.

And don't try to use the "it's been raining" excuse on us.
The weather looks plenty fine for a car wash.
![rofl](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/rofl.gif)
But anywho, drop looks good, now wash it and get some wheels hehe
edit: and CG's rule!

First few pics are prior to me correcting the height and aligning the tires... check the other pics if they loaded up correctly.

damn the drop looks real nice eugene. sorry i wasnt there to help out with the install but im sure ryans a pro so my presence wasnt needed. now its time for you to get a lip kit.

you're driveway found a match made in heaven.
and the concrete looks killer too. both the driveways and the sidewalk.
after seeing the exact models in the same color side by side, i think i agree that the lip is much cleaner than the spoiler. the spoiler isnt horrible, but it's not as low profile as i'd like.

I did a post about the driving impressions in the suspension page. But to sum it up when these are set on the softest dampening.. it really feels like stock. Not harsh at all IMO. And yeah I did come from stock suspension.

If you only wanted to go to a two finger gap - why did you choose coils? And, why put a camber kit on? Couldn't you have just gone with Eibach Pro kit springs and either leave the stock struts or go w/ a tokico blue or koni yellow??
I am a TSX noob - so if I am way off, please let me know.
BTW, looks good. That is the drop I would go with -- but I wasn't thinking coilovers....

HAHAHAHA... I'm
at the dirty car comments!! Truth be told, I've been concentrating on selling my house and not keeping the car/wheels clean. I am running some pretty aggressive pads too, though that is no excuse. As soon as all the contracts and such get signed, the car will get washed. There is about 5 coats of Zaino under all that dirt.

But most definately new rims will be coming along once I save up some $$$ I'm really digging the Mugen NR's but they are so damn expensive.
