Yo there is a dude I know sellin a set of these wit around 600 miles on em for $500. Thing is tho they for 94-97 Accord. From what I was told that shouldn't make a difference (but correct me if I'm wrong). Does anyone have these or know much about them? I would appreciate any info on em.

They should still fit.

I don't know much about them, but I'd definitely say that's a good pick up.

[gloryaccordy]

They will fit, and that is a good deal, however if u can talk him down to $400 it will be a GREAT deal

Why so eager?

Your answer is in the stickies you should have read.

Not a bad price on the coils, but trying to talk them down to $400 . . . c'mon now. It's not as if they've been used and abused. He's only had them for 600 miles. Could at least offer something respectable.

man never believe what sellers tell you. i never pay asking price, doesn't hurt to offer 400. worst they can say is no, then you pull out the other 100 you brought with you

Yo I appreciate that link. Might think twice about gettin them. And alright already, if I do decide to get em I'll try and talk em down to $400 dammit.

I wouldn't buy them... I just know about 3 or 4 people that had them(but they all had them on Eclipse's), and they are junk, they will blow out on you in 9-12 months.

Spend your money on some quality parts. Remember these are components that keep your rubber on the ground.

The only shock/strut maker that I personally would trust would be koni yellow shocks. They are perfect for any car that is lowered a bit, or heck even stock hight cars for that matter.
Speaking of springs, the companies I'd choose there would be Eibach, Hyperco, H&R and Neuspeed. Hyperco is geared more twords someone who needs a certain spec of spring for a custom application (such as those with ground control sleeves that wish to use something that is better suited to their driving style).

Having said all that I think the best bang for your buck will likely be the following:

though I must recommend that if you want to get these higher performance parts for you suspension that you make darn sure your alignment is correct (you may need a camber kit here). You're also going to NEED to be SURE that the rest of your suspension is in good condition. I can't say if it is or not. The quickest way for that is to get a thorough inspection done on the car at a well known and respected car repair shop (state certified to do inspections).

Oh yeah, one more thing... Above all else do your homework and research the heck out of it untill you've found something that many people sware by. That's how I've done things and it's never really steered me wrong or to far off the beaten path.

I listed some companies above that should get you started down the right path. Speaking of which I forgot to add that tokico is another fairly decent maker of shocks. don't get the blues unless you are just replacing OE shocks. Tokico also makes a adjustable shock that works well, not quite as nice as the koni yellows but still fairly decent.

i had the 90-93 application ksports for my cb, they worked ok but i was never able to dial them in...the dampening and valving on them is pretty flawed. they don't match each other and the dampening adjustment on some of them has even been known to do the opposite of what it is supposed to (turn the damper tighter and the shock gets softer etc.) go with some tein's, neuspeed cup kit, custom ground control springs with koni yellows etc.
