Neuspeed-Koni Yellow SP3's on Eibach Prokits. HOT!

Hi all,

Sorry for the dirty car with winter wheels I cant drive a mile in the winter without her getting all dirty here in Ohio

I just wanted to post some pics of my ride which I have been rolling on Eibach ProKit spring for almost a year now, but just replaced my old Tokico HP Blue struts with Neuspeed-Koni Yellow Sp3's which have 5 height adjustable perches.

I put the fronts on the LOWEST and the rears on SECOND to lowest. This gets rid of the "sagging" rear look that the eibach's give as well as eliminates my front wheel gap.

Settled in, this gives me about a 1.8'' drop up front and 1.5 in the rear.

Im loving the ride quality with the koni's set to 1.50 turns from softest.

Thanks for your insight man.

I'll take it into consideration when it isnt 10 degrees outside. I also dont think you've experienced the horror which is known as "road salt."

You warm weather folk crack me up!

yea if you put that on the lowest setting it might settle a little more... I remember I saw rodneys car from the passenger side and it was on an incline... meaning the passenger side was on the hiside and it looked tucked... lol

Wow looks nice, I have the Prokit and I am experiencing the sagging look in the rear.... !! I think this is the perfect fix looks awesome, way better than just the prokit. Is the ride more harsh then using stock shocks ?

Also what is the best place to buy the shocks ?

The ride on these is a little better than with just the prokits (and some tokico Blue shocks). But thats because the Koni's now give me dampening adjustment.

They are cheapest to buy from neuspeed.com ... listed under the 2003 V6 accord 4DR. They fit our cars perfectly because we share the same suspension.

shit!.... i forgot he changed his mind as the last moment and decided to use
H&R sport springs because he wants to go lower than 1.5 inches up front. Still tho dude, thats an awesome setup and I know there is at least one person on the forum that has raved about how good the ride was.

Go for it!
