    The ride looks great. Nice clean (and even) drop. I'm considering these lowering springs as well. For right now, I'm aiming for Eibach Sportsline with Koni yellows.

    I get paranoid watching people stand in front of a spring-loaded gun. I usually work from the side, just in case the thing wants to explode. Besides that, great content!

    don't stand in front of the strut when removing the top mount. Stand on the side just in case the spring slips off...many people got hurt already.

    good stuff, I need to get some of those springs for my wifes Fit. I have KW V3s for the NSX and Skunk2 ProS on K swap EK but for a simple drop these seem perfect.

    • @paigemacdonald7193
      @paigemacdonald7193  Před 4 lety +1

      Definitely are perfect for a simple drop! For me I didn’t see any point in getting coilovers when my struts are in good shape!

  • @spanky5426
    @spanky5426 Před 4 lety

    Hey Paige, great ride height, I went for lowering springs myself. After taking a few different rides on our local roads I decided coilovers weren't for me. On the clutch side I'm going to run with an *EXEDY* heavy duty for my set up, I guess you might need something a little stronger, from what I've seen *:P*

  • @4doorSi
    @4doorSi Před 4 lety

    I’d ask someone at action clutch. Maybe a stage 2 pressure plate with stage 1 disc since it’s a daily. Whatever you do use an OEM/Nachi brand bearing. Informative vid.. I’m afraid of lowering even mildly because my 8th gen is my daily.. plus I’ve got a family. Had it for 10 years now only owner. I can see the effects of northern winter on your 8th gen compared to here in Georgia.. I’m glad to be down south 😳
