thats why you dont lower your car on stock struts. save up for a set of good quality springs and struts and stop trying to cut corners.

so if you knew, why didnt you tell your brother that you got the car from before he fucked it up 
and if you were to use the search function, or google, you might just find the answer that you are looking for. |

well if u can't get the exact answer here, maybe try calling the honda dealership tell them ur interested in buying some springs, and wanted to know if u could get the 2dr coupe springs on ur car. Simply go from there on what he says.

the springs are the same whether it's the 2dr or 4dr...but they are different if they got a V6 - the extra weight of the motors is what makes the difference. simple act of going to Nopi.com & comparing part no.s answered this adventure

if the dampers are almost new, they can handle it for a long while. i had Neuspeed springs put on after 6months on stock dampers, & the they've been fine for 4yrs. i now ride on KYB AGX & the ride is much stiffer than when it was w/ sport springs & stock dampers.
cutting springs like many cheapasses do, brings true meaning to "cutting corners" |

some people are just too lazy, or maybe too stupid to even think of doing such a thing. or, if they actually do a search, they are just not smart enough to figure out the difference between a good source and a bad source of information.

Now back on topic. what is the difference then between the v6 springs and the 4cyl.... would they still fit. Is it just the spring rates that r different?
