    i'm rockin ground controls, with agx's and i would rate them a 9 - 9.5

    its a great ride, not to stiff, but not bouncy either.


    And factory CUT springs and struts, and it rides like a dream!

      Stock shocks
      Megan Racing coilover sleeves

      7/10


      Not bouncy, but it's pretty stiff. There's almost no body roll, but the suspension is a little bland with the blown shocks.


      Getting Koni STR.T's mid-March though.

            tokico kit. I dunno seems like i scrap the front right too much. It doesnt bounce and doesnt feel stiff. Its comfortable but not at all sporty or low. I rate it 5 or 6.

                LETS JUST PUT IT THIS WAY, THERE IS NO CORNER I CANT TAKE AT 30+ MPH, but in my true oppinion there great, a little bouncy in the sharp turns but i like that little bouncy feel through the turn, and i have no idea why lol

                  I have a Skunk2 set of coil sleeves for an integra, according to the spec sheet on Skunk2's web site, the only difference between the sleeve kits for accords and integras is the spring rate up front is stiffer (8kg/mm-accord 10kg/mm-integra) for the integra and the sleeve is 55mm shorter on the rear for the integra kit(125mm-integra 180mm-accord). Anyone have any ideas as to how well (or not) this will fit? They came with Tokico Blues, and I'm really tempted to use them for my car instead of turning them for a profit. But I'd like some input before I make my decision. I'd assume that if I had the sleeve on the rear adjusted fully upward I would still have just over 2 inches of drop (2.16") and the adjustment for the front would be the same as an accord kit. Would the Tokico's even come close to fitting an Accord? I'm aware the suspensions are all very similar for most honda's but I'm not sure of how similar they are.

                    Tokico blues are made for a spring rate no more than 15% over stock, and a ride height about 1" lower than stock. They will not react well with very stiff springs on coilovers that will probably make you lower than 1" even at their heighest. They will blow quickly, and be unsafe the entire time.

                    As for being made for an Integra... I wouldn't risk it. Sell them to someone with an Integra, and get yourself some quality parts. Koni STR.T shocks are what you want if you're on a budget.

                      sorry to bring up and old thread..but heres a noob question.. if ur using coil over sleeves do u need to grind of the original spring perches? or just sit the sleeves on top of them???

                      Comment


                        sit them on top. And I REALLY hope you're not doing that on stock shocks...

                            self-rated 8/10, bit bouncy on poor wallowy country roads at speed limits. corners well. drop looks mad imho. rears are fantastic, with the rear perch spun all the way down the top of the rim disappears into the wheel well, no tyre. wish the fronts could follow suit. the pic below is at the lowest for the fronts. still didnt stop a copper from giving me a defect notice.
