    Function and Forms, not low enough...

    Hi guys.

    I swapped my Omni coilovers this weekend, hoping I would be lower, but after the install I was dissapointed...

    I still have a good inch left on the front, but the rears are all the way down...

    Anything I can do to make it lower?

    Ive seen cars on here that are much lower then I could get mine.

    All help appreciated

    wish i could tell you how to go lower
    all bumpstops removed?
    UCA touching the frame?
    cant think of anything else

    i love the wheel fitment though
    what size tires? and what offset in front?

        stickydiljoe said that there are 2 different sizes for our cars and that you need to specifically ask for the 90-93 accord fitment if you want to go really low. for some reason, they let you lower it like 2 inches more than an universal 90-97 set.

                      The way to a slammed car is GC and Koni yellows. This is what I have always heard that get you the lowest. I know you already have the f&f but I just wanted to let you know that, thats the best set up to get low.

                      Sorry I couldn't help with your question.

                            if i read this right...

                            Just recently introduced into the CB market a little over a month ago, these are the newest line of coilovers for the 90-93 Accord chassis. These are NOT the same as the 94-97 applications as the shocks are shorter giving the 90-93 chassis the ultimate in ride height adjustability as well as 18-way adjustable dampening. This system is based off of my car personally as I over saw the development of these coilovers specifically for our chassis Accords.
