02 Civic Spring/Shock Install
Ok, here is the straight information on installation
on my 2002 Civic:
Installed Eibach Sportline Springs and Koni Yellow
shocks/struts today. Passion Motorsports. Columbus, OH
Passion got me in in 2 days.
Sportline Springs have reduced height by exactly
1 1/4 inches on each wheel.
Adjusted all 4 wheels within Honda specs without
a camber kit. 5hours installation time for a
quality installation. Ride is better than stock with these springs/shocks.

Yup thats about where mine measured at first. I think its a little bit lower now that they've settled. Interesting that they were able to adjust your camber with no kits, especially the rear. Might be better to go back after a couple of weeks and see if the camber has changed. I can tell that mine did in the rear so I bought me a SPC kit that I need to install.

Rep Power: 417 the guy who started this post. reason i ask is, it takes about 3 days for the bushings to settle. within these 3 days its possible and very likely your car will sit a little lower then the day you got them installed. your car sits lower and your car is effected.
