SOLD! FS: PRICE DROP, NOW $380!!! A-Spec Suspension Kit for TSX *LESS than 10k miles*

I have the A-Spec suspension kit for sale for the TSX (AT model, although I hear this fits on the MT models just the same). This kit is for those that want a very slight drop (approx. 1") and major handling improvements. I noticed it handles much better than stock, you can take the corners with much more confidence and it eliminates a lot of diving during hard braking and lift during acceleration. The only reason I am selling this kit is because I purchased some Tein Basics, I wanted a more aggressive drop over the A-specs.

Here are the details:

- Less than 10k miles on the kit (installed @ the 5k mark and removed @ 13k mark).
- Purchased and installed by Acura of Escondido, so you can rest assure it was always handled by professionals (no negligence). I have all the paperwork to prove it.
- I prefer local pickups (in Southern California, LA/OC) but am willing to ship (buyer will incur additional shipping charges if not a pickup).
- I'm asking for $450 obo. I got them for $650 after tax. Remember, this kit has less than 10k miles and is in excellent condition.
- If you're interested or got any questions, please PM me. THANKS!!

Shouldn't they come with top hats as well? As far as I know, A-spec suspension packages come pre-assembled.

Correct me if I'm wrong, though.

You are correct. Also, for prospective buyers, while the AT version and MT version are interchangeable for the most part, the AT will not drop as much on an MT car as the MT version.

Yes you're right, the top hats were removed and integrated into my Tein Basic setup. I just spoke with Acura of Escondido and they said stock and a-spec top hats are identical so you can just use the top hats from your stock suspension.

Most likely, you will need a spring compressor to accomplish it.

Most places with a Loan-A-Tool program will have these. Just make sure you know how to use it or get a good tutorial, or have a friend who knows what he's doing to help you.

If you'd be willing to price drop a fair bit more, I may be interseted. But seeing as its an incomplete set, lets talk PM before I lowball you. PM if interested.

Deandorsey, where are you located? You don't happen to be in the SoCA area?

Price Drop, now $380!!! Forum members have brought to my attention that the top hats are missing. I spoke with the mechanic that installed my Tein Basics and indeed he said the top hats were removed to be integrated into my new setup. I spoke with Acura and they said that stock and a-spec top hats are identical so during install all you need to do is remove the top hats off the stock setup and integrate them into the a-specs. Hence, I figured it's only fair if I lower the price so there you have it, from $450 to $380.
