Question Question on the Koni Kit

I bought the full Koni kit (the Koni Yellows, and matched springs)

http://www.truehonda.com/inventory.p...tdetail&id=424

Has anyone installed these yet?
Any pics of a drop with this setup?

Any opinoins on this setup!

I was going to go with Koni yellows and sportlines but couldn't turn down a Lifetime Warranty!!!

i ordered it too, but ed (truehonda) said it might take 7-10 days for it to come in.
hopefully it will be all worth it, haha.
cheers to truehonda for the great pricing.

In step 10 above, a word of advice. You dont have to cut it down to 40mm, I only did 30mm. This leaves you more strut housing for support and makes it easier to cut since its not so far down.

I was planning on taking it somewhere to get it done. I have no clue how to any suspension work.

When I get the kit in, should I adjust the firmness before they put them on?

What is yours set at?

I just dont want to make it too firm

Does adjusting that effect the ride height at all?


I guess myself and wonderz will be the first to get this kit installed

Nope, only the firmness of the ride.
