The newly designed rear (coupe) spring is "not" taller than the sedan rear spring. There is still a fairly significant difference between the two. The sedan is significantly heavier in the rear. As soon as we have pics of vehicles w/the new kit we will put them up on the web.

Regards,
Jeff

Right, but isn't it true that with the new coupe springs on the coupe, it will sit approximately 1/4 inch higher than the sedan springs on the coupe and the old coupe springs sat about a 1/4 inch lower than the sedan springs?

Yay. I just picked up my New Goldlines Yesterday. I talked to Jeff and George down at Goldline. Thanks for all your help.
George personally sent my springs to a local Honda Dealer with my name on the box.
Im about to put the new springs on. (hopefully by tommorow).

Mad Props to Goldline and their customer service.
Thanks George and Jeff.

P.S. Ill post pics as soon as I get them installed

2dr will fit 4dr and 4dr will fit 2dr but ya its just the drop on the rear... sedans are heavier in the rear so of course the rear is going to sit lower then the coupe when comparing with the same springs

How "off" are the gaps with the old springs, it looks like the rear has no gap and the front has a finger's worth.

So there's going to be no difference besides even gaps?

Is it going to be a finger's gap all the way around or what?

???

I have the old version of the goldlines, they have the best drop I've seen so far.
BTW..maybe I'm dumb but I don't understand the difference between old and new-my gaps look the same....
