I want to lower my car, but i dont know how many inches!! Also, what should i get: springs, coilovers, or shocks? And what the hell is the difference? Any help would be appreciated.thnx.

 

Your best bet is TEIN basic, they are true coilovers(complete set), excellent quality, great handling, lowers your car about 1.5-2 inches(its enough), and it will cost you about $750.

 

u dont even need coilovers like that guy is saying. if yo uwanna spend 750 then go for it because those things are awesome. but if your short on the money like i was you can get tein s-tech springs. just the springs, no coilover or anything. they cost me about $170.00 and lowered my car 1.5". if you want to lower it more then you can get the other tein springs. i forget what they are called but they lower it 2 inches.

 

First question is what are you looking for from your car? Race or just around town driving?

look in my sig for my suspension. I love it. Only thing I would do different is buy the Koni yellow shocks instead of the tokico's

 

look into my sig also. I love the ride (kyb agx struts...you can adjust their stiffness, and neuspeed springs(1.75 inch drop in front/ 1.5 inch in the rear). That ran me $500 before installation. $100 for installation, but that was with the hookup, usually runs for $200-250. You can install yourself, but it can be a pain if you don't know what you're doing.

 

Did you end up needing a rear camber kit for the S-Techs? I was gonna get the S-Techs but I heard people saying that with 2" or more drops on the Acords they had to get rear camber kits. That is the only reason I didn't buy them.

Anyhoo, I think that the High Techs have the less than one inch drop on the rear and the S-Techs are more than two inches. I may be wrong check www.tein.com. I went with the H&R sport springs they seem to work out great. I just need to get new struts and I'm set.
