- Thu Apr 02, 2009 5:08 am #107588 Before:




After:


OH SNAP!! I got me some Negative Camber Happy days.

The Numbers:
I measured from the ground to top of the wheel well in the center to see how high it sits. These Measurements where taken before lowering the car, and right before leaving my Uncles shop. When I stop at Burger King on the way home and looked at the car it looked a bit lower then in the pics.

. . BEFORE . . . . After
FL 24 3/4" . . . 23 3/4"
FR 25" . . . . . . 23 3/4"

RL 24 1/2" . . . 23 1/4"
RR 24 3/4" . . . 23 1/4"

The car overall dropped an inch. The Description says it will drop 1.5" in the Fount. and 1.2" in the back. I am sure it will sit lower once they settle in better.

These Eibach Springs are awesome. I have the Awesome Ride and comfort I had with OEM Springs and yet Much much less Body Roll, I also get the nice looks of a Lowered car.

I will be getting pictures in a few days when they hopefully settled in better. Once they settle in I will get my Toe set to "0"

Next on my Mod list.

WINDOW TINT.

You should I saw you had a 98-01 Integra 4door and If I was you I would have Straight up jacked those Webs and stuck them on my EG.

Actually thats kinda what I did. I took my Webs of my 01 Integra LS and put them on my Coupe, then onto my Sedan.

looks really clean with the ls meshes and lowered..

Thanks, I thought so as well. I look forward to having it Tinted. That will help it look better. The lowering kit is definitely one of my Favorite mods I have done to it yet.

Thanks for the comments, I Wouldn't mind the car being lower than it is now. The Main concern when I lowered it was Ride Comfort. I Researched and went with Eibach Lowering Springs.

That cars springs are settling and is sitting lower then the original after pics.


I snapped this when I was leaving work yesterday. The back springs need to settle in more but the front looks good. This car wont be "Dumped" or "Slammed" I have had the "joys" of that in my coupe. Its nice going over speed bumps and steeper driveways without Scraping.

:thumb:......nice springs but dam that still looks stock height.......maybe you should have got some coil overs..

I am thinking I should have gone with Soft Adjustable Coil-overs. >__> Oh well. To late to change my mind on that now.

I was bored, so I decided to install my Subs into my Sedan. Rear springs seam to have settled in just fine. After cleaning everything up I decided to go out and take some Pictures.

Exterior:





Negitive Camber

Interior:






When I was Lowering my Sedan I replaced the Old DX Muffler with an EX Muffler, the pipe was leaking since I got the car, I never knew how bad, The entire pipe was broken and the pipe was only connected by a support brace. Needless to say the muffler was replaced my old OEM EX coupe Muffler. I wish I took pictures before Replacing everything.

Glad to bring back memories of your Sedan. I totally understand what you mean. I like that. However for the people who dont:


This is how the car sits with 2 Grown men in it.
Progressive rates Springs FTW!

I Will put a Lip on it Once I put a Coupe/Hatch Bumper on.

I love my Alpine Type-E's. They bump good. Overall the whole sound system is Awesome. Good low Bass, Nice midrange and good highs. I love it.

I have toyed with the idea of throwing a B16 into the Sedan. However I rather put the money Toward my "Buy a 98-01 4door Integra GSR" fund instead.
