In Need Of Some Intructions

Okay The Day Has Come I Will Be Installing My Suspension That Has Been Sitting In My Shed For The Last 3 Months Tomorrow. Can Some One Direct Me To A Diy For The Spring And Strut Install I Have One From Abunchofcars. Com But I Know There Is A Better One So If Someone Could Help Me That Would Be Greatly Appreciated. And I Want To Thank All You Guys On Here You Are Truly Acura Fanatics And I Dont Know What I Would Do Without You All, You Have Been A Great Help To Me. I Know Your Probably Going To Complain About Me Typing In Caps To Im Just To Lazy To Take It Off. And Your Probably Going To Tell Me To Use The Seach Tool I Did And All I Got Back Is The One That I Have Now. So Please Help Me Out. Thank You All.

you were rigt bro i just got done installing my suspension. I can now officially declare having tokico 5 way adjustables and tein s tech springs. I just drove home from the shop where i did the work and i already noticed a huge difference the quality in the ride is alot smoother. i have the setting on 3 right now. i know it will get a little stiffer as the days go by. what do you guys recommend, how long should i wait to get the camber done. and does anyone know where i could go to get it done. does anyone know if sears does this type of work? and when i do get my camber done do i get a zero degree camber or do i have them leave it a little off or does it really matter.

congrats on the new suspension. the second time i did a suspension job (first time was my car, second time was RickRoush's) it went quicker since i knew what to do. i'm pretty sure sears does that type of work. you may want to consider camber but if you go and get your car aligned i would imagine they would check it and adjust it for you. check in the suspension subforum. they should have an answer for you in there. i honestly don't know. i only did a 2" drop so i didn't need to do a camber kit.
