It feels "bouncier" to me rather than harsh.. The roads around me are all pretty smooth so I think I'll be fine as far as daily driving is concerned, but if I had to drive on roads that were pretty bad it'd be a strain. It's raining today so I'm going to leave the car inside

hmm ... i thought that is the point of having coilovers so you can adjust them the way you want it ...

car looks great !

KonigsTiger · 02-16-2009, 11:50 AM

Where ya live? Are you that dropped black E92 that lives on the nicer side track for Tustin Fields? If you are I think I saw you one day in back of me coming off the ramp. You were driving kinda agressively then turned right into the neighborhood

Live on the cheaper side

Damn, for a second I thought they worked with EDC. Are there any plans for KW or any other companies to release a EDC compatable coilover?

Regardless, it looks great. The stance is very nice, and like you said with the new wheels it will look perfect. You just gave me some hope for the stock 18s that I might have to rock for a few months. They dont look as bad as I originally thought on AW and lowered.... any more pics? please post em

I've been lookin out the window all day and it's either really gloomy or drizzling so I wont be able to take any pictures until a few days (I work next few). Also thanks for the compliment =) I have not heard of any facts of a company releasing an EDC compatible system short of rumors.

look great

jtecnik · 02-17-2009, 06:06 PM

damm nice drop and ride bro...cant wait to see it when you get your new wheels

DICKER 1 · 02-17-2009, 06:26 PM

Typically,

One would say the decreased ride height looks unbearable.
Actually it looks great. I have this same KW Kit in my office.
I've decided not to use it because
i've been having second thoughts on the EDC being no existent.

A KW rep informed me there would be an add-on for this kit to have EDC full
compatibility.

Sincerely,
The Dickiest

Jack28 · 02-17-2009, 06:28 PM

Very Nice Drop!

MattDogg42 · 02-17-2009, 09:44 PM

Looks very good! Well done..

montreal red · 02-17-2009, 11:49 PM

the stance of the car is really good! you must be pretty good in terms of car/suspension knowledge to do the install yourself. i wont trust myself to do an install like that on my own.

It's actually very easy...I just referenced that DIY, but I've lowered my Civic numerous times with springs and shocks along with other people's cars. I really wanted the satisfaction of doing it myself also.

IRMthree · 02-18-2009, 04:31 AM

nice drop

jcw · 03-30-2011, 06:53 PM

I just bought the same shocks and would love to know what you think of them. I'm going to BIR to recertify my SCCA license and planning to take the three-day course with my M3. I just purchased the shocks and Michelin pilot sport cups. I hope the combination of the coil overs with the sport cups will significantly enhance the handling characteristics of the car. I look forward to your response.
