As far as I know, only Tein makes one for the CU4 (TSX V6) model.

They offer both in SS (List price $1,080) and Basic model( $810), both drop around 1.4" F&R. (Height adjustment range from F=0.87"-2.32" R-0 - 2.02"). Coliover only from Tein, no springs yet for CU4.

This is their link:

Here's a photo from their site:

Yeah it looks great. We would suggest the Tein kit as will. I don't know of any really great damper upgrades being available so going just springs is going to be a short term solution...The Tein kits are dampers and springs together. LMK if you need more info on them!

V6 TSX looks good with a drop.

Cut springs if you want to be cheap =). Joking.

Cut springs, lol. I am old enough to know that this is not as bad a thing to do as it sounds Used to be standard process for installing Eibach Sportlines on Civics.
