View Full Version : Should i do this?? magicpenguins01 01-16-2006, 06:23 AM hey im planning on buying stec springs to lower my honda accord 95 2inches and buying a camberkit....im kind of on a budget so i cant affored shocks too so can i use my stock shocks??? i dont really care if it blows out int he future but as long as i can use them for awhile and its cool with me? ...should i do this or is their any other better idea that wont burn a hole in my pocket?? lightshow 01-16-2006, 07:53 AM TEIN? good choice... well while you have everything out it would be a really good idea to change the struts. ofcourse you can use your old ones, but youll keep the tires on the ground a lot more with some good struts, those springs are pretty stiff. you wont want to hit any uneven pavement at 110. even if you got the kyb's that would be so much better than what you have now. tokico or koni would be even better, its just a couple hundred more bucks. it will keep that bouncyness away for sure though. lightshow magicpenguins01 01-16-2006, 05:17 PM with my car ill probably never reach 110 lol but im just a daily driver though and i dont do any racing...i dont really drive crazy either or drive really fast over speed bumps and stuff like that...i just want my car to look nicer.... lightshow 01-16-2006, 08:19 PM yea i was talking about the wheel hop though. when you go over uneven pavement, your tire is going to come off the ground making you loose control a little. a good shock will help eliminate it. if your just cruising around it shouldnt be a big deal though. not even speed bumps, i mean like the over pass on the freeway. lightshow 6thgen 01-18-2006, 12:08 PM ORIGINAL: magicpenguins01 with my car ill probably never reach 110 lol but im just a daily driver though and i dont do any racing...i dont really drive crazy either or drive really fast over speed bumps and stuff like that...i just want my car to look nicer.... Fun begins at 110...as well as my adrenaline (on an empty road ;)) Anyways lowering the car 2" on stock shocks will probably blow them eventually, but they will work if mounted. magicpenguins01 01-23-2006, 11:30 PM how long will it be before my stock shocks blow??Anybody? 6thgen 01-24-2006, 10:48 AM No one knows, maybe soon, maybe never. You'll hear different stories of peoples demise and fortune. |
