Thanks for the help guys

I bought the kit locally here in Houston. John Eagle Acura is the place. Ok price I guess.

Ive also found the knobs and the megans. Im getting them online for 900 shipped with knobs(860 without)

Now can someone please chime in and tell me what Im going to need. Will I need to take off my sway bar?? If so do I HAVE to replace it. What else do I need to know/replace/move/change for this install.

Thanks to whoever replies

Search function is your friend.

Here is a thread that goes over the install for the Tein Basics to give you some idea on what you need and how to do it:

honestly with the current live.com 25% cashback you would get $400 back for this purchase.... take a look at that, but i would of course support the vendors, they are here for us, it isn't cheap

^^^^^ Ive never understood how to do this live crap. I know I may get money back but I have no idea how to do it. Yes I looked it up but couldnt figure it out if my life depended on it. If anyones willing to tell me how(not show me a link) Id greatly appreciate it

Aspec Kit is in my garage, I picked it up today, cant wait to put it on.

live.com

search:ipod

on the sponsored results click the first result which is ebay

you will see a "microsoft cashback" logo on the top of ebay

it applies on all buy it now listings

as long as the logo is on top of the listing you are eligible, and the seller must accept paypal otherwise it wont work

i don't know why so many people are scared of ebay.

if you buy from a seller with high enough feedback, you have nothing to worry about.

lsd_motorsports have been around for years srving thousands of people. Just because they stated to sell on Ebay doesnt take anything from that. They have over 1500+ feedbacks, I think they are legit

You mean the strut tower bar, not the the cross member. The cross member is the front subframe. The strut tower bar needs to be removed for the install, access holes must be drilled in the strut bar to access the damper adjusters, so it gets re-installed.

You should really use the search function, this has been brought up over and over.

BTW Tein's can go low. Their isn't a whole lot of ground clearance on these cars. You could definitely do some serious damage if you hit something wrong. Hopefully the roads by you are in good shape.

Thanks for clearing that up. Yea I meant the tower bar. So all I have to do is drill some holes on it to make it fit. Thats good

Thanks, now if only I can get this live.com thing going....

Ok got it going. Now the only question I have left is,

http://pages.motors.ebay.com/cashbackoffer/terms.html

#2? Does this mean that I will only be able to spend CB rewards using Paypal, meaning I cant just transfer that money over to my bank account???

And how long after I pay for this will I get the CB rewards??? Thanks
