Springs for sedan. . .

Which springs are compatible with the 2k1 sedan??? I read that some springs (like the H&R's) are not safe for sedans. I'm planning on getting progress sports or sprints. Would these work???

Springs not compatible with a sedan? HAHA......

Coupes and Sedans are very close in overall weight, springs will be the same for either one.

That being said, you best spring is going to be from Eibach. Either Pro-Kit, Sportlines, or a set of Ground Controls. Just depends on how much you want to drop.

The rear springs on the sedan are .6" taller than the Coupe springs. Don't know why or what. But if you get Springs with equal drops in front/rear the rear will be lowered slightly more. I've emailed Nuespeed and I'm awaiting they;re reply on their race springs.. I emailed Eibach as well to see what they say.

I got a reply from Nuespeed..SOME 2k1 EX sedans(Acura EL's as well) have different rear strut assemblies... DX/LX sedans can use All springs and there will be no difference. Only EX Sedans manufactured between sept 00 to feb 01. are affected.

Cheers
