Nobody hear went with the Intrax route. Comptech, Eibach, and H&R are the only ones that people have used.

I have a couple of friends that got intrax springs for their honda's. They were inexpensive, but they didn't like the ride, said that they were too bouncy. I don't recall anyone going with them for the cl tho'.

Hey,

I have Intrax springs and I must say I am very pleased with them. They dropped my ride about 2.5" and it rides very close to stock. I reccomend them.

And another thing springs aren't bouncy, If your ride is bouncy that means you need new shocks...

honestly, intrax aren't too bad compared to companys like sprint and stuff. But they will never match the ride and performance of companys like eibach h&r and comptech

Well with the intrax springs were too soft on their cars so they kept bottoming out on their shocks and hitting the bump stop. They switched too eibachs and the ride improved like night and day. I'm not saying they suck for cl's, i'm just posting their experiences with them. Thats great that they have worked well for you.

cause sportlines are for performance so they are nice and stiff so they don't bottom out and stay flat through corners. They aren't made for a nice ride, anything lower then about an inch and a half aren't. ANd surprisingly i'm very pleased w/ my sportlines alot softer and easier on the kidneys then my coilovers. But honestly if you want ride quality eibach pro-kit ownz joo

I don't bottom out. But anyway are you going to explain this 11.32? And this is off topic but how are these CL-S's going to put the Accord SC on? Will it fit on our 1st gen??

That's pretty clever. You had me worried there for a sec. I thought you went with a 150 shot or somethin.....
Oh and I asked the guys at Comptech and they said the SC would not fit our 1st gen's. WTF??

I remember hearing long time ago that intrax were made by eibach. However I don't remember hearing anything positive about them. Btw CLPower...to run a 11.32... u have a 300 shot NOS kit going or something?

A possibly positive thing about Intrax... I think they make the lowest drop with springs available.
