Koni Sport Kit Installed W/Pics

Got the Koni Sport Kit installed today. Here two pics, ill get more tomorrow. Today is the first day for the drop and the pics were takin about an hour after the drop. Yes I know its not Slammed but I drive this car every day and just wanted a clean lookin ride. But for you thinking about the Koni Sport Kit this is what it will look like after the drop.

Perfect.. looks really good. Just the right height for a daily driver. Give us some feedback on how it handles now. Also post some direct side shots! Thanks.

It handles great!!! I have the fronts as soft as I can get them but the rears I havent been able to adjust yet! But overall Im impressed, I didnt think the kit would be that low but the ride is not too much different than stock (On the soft setting atleast). Once I get new tires and an alignment next Sat ill get out and run it through some turns on different settings.


Will these springs settle anymore? I like the drop where it is now.

Thanks, thats much more of a drop than what everyone first said, or maybe Im wrong. People said 1.3, if it settles more I will get about 1 finger max in the gap. Oh well it looks much better either way. Now I just need to figure out how to adjust the rear shocks without bustin my car up.

nice drop bud..

You should let it settle for at least about 2weeks (that's how long it took mine to settle all the way) and then, put camber kit on/alignment

My ride is dropped on H&R's and it states it is 1.3'' drop, but I' think itz more like 1.8~2''max.

Redline04 is an unknown quantity at this point
I just stumbled upon these on True Honda. $615 isn't bad for a set of koni's and springs. I like the drop too, it should look real nice when they settle. What profile tire are running? If the Omni's don't come out within the next month I may go with this setup. Let us know how it handles when you get the chance to test.

You do. The 2001 and some of the 2002's use the 50mm front strut.
