Is the aspec suspension worth getting?

Well I was going to test drive a TL with Aspec tomorrow and the dealer just emailed me that the car was sold over the weekend. It looks as though I might not get to drive one now they are hard to find. IF I can't find one do you think I should still get it without a test drive? I am really just interested in the suspension and tires. O I did drive a tsx with aspec and I did notice a difference I liked it.

1) Wrong forum...this will be moved soon...
2) Just buy the coilovers and wheels on eBay.
3) Get a CT RSB while you're at it.
4) Any more questions regarding ASPEC suspension, do a search in the Wheels and Tires subforum...many threads dedicated to this topic.

CT rear sway?

How much improved handling did you get from the CT rear sway? The cost sure seem reasonable...

Depends on what you drive. The 5AT driver will feel a huge improvement as they are a little skimpy in the RSB area anyway (from what I've heard).

For the 6MT driver it is a subtle improvement (from 20mm-22mm).

Can anyone suggest a dealership in So. Cal that will install the kit at a decent price. I would prefer a dealership that has done this before.

The members who have the CT RSB have nothing but positive comments. The consensus is less body roll. Do a search for reviews on the RSB. Here's one.

I live in Anaheim and checked most of the dealers around for it.. but not any dealers offered right price.. most of them wanted over $450.. I laughed and left.

There's a custom shop that does the suspension job though.
They install a set of suspension for under $150 I believe.

I don't know where you live, but it's in the Stanton area.
(Beach Blvd. + Katella Ave)

If you really are interested, then PM me for more info. My friend did alot of mods there, so it is pretty reliable.
