Okay...guys...I was talking to the distributer and he told me that the Nex Coilovers were designed for the 4 cylinder Accord, but could support the V6 as well. The TL/CL is a bit heavier....but I figure it should still be fine. This is a disclaimer now...if you still want them...I can still get them...I already have 2 orders...

If you're adjusting it how do you know that each coilover is at the exact same height as all the others and not off by a few millimeters?? And how do you adjust the height? DO you have to jack up the car to adjust or can you adjust from the top like the stiffness for KONIS?? Thanks..just trying to cover all bases. I'm still interested.

If you go to www.groupbuycenter.com they have the NEX coilovers there too, and there is one listed for 01-02 CL-S/TL-S so apparantly they do make an application for our cars.

Aegean....yeah, it will work for the CL/TL, it just wasn't designed for it...something no one else is telling you, but we're all friends here and I just wanted to let you all know..
Amir...if coilovers rust....it's only because of the salt on the roads from your fucked up winters...
Trust me...all the springs are powdercoated and the struts have a cadium plating on them....your friend's springs might be rusted because of bottoming out and thus scratching some of the powdercoat and exposing the metal coil.
Langjae...the coilovers are adjusted by the collars. The struts are not adjustable...only height. You can adjust the height with the wheel on...but it is actually easier with it off. You adjust the height by counting the threads...it's a bit tedious...but then you get an even count on each side. So, they won't be anymore off than a regular set of springs...and you can even compensate for the fact that since you are the main person in the car...and more weight is put on it...you can add a little more height to your side.....Corner weighting.
