I’ve been looking into lowering my 1987 Accord LX but can’t find any coilovers for it. Anyone know where I can buy some or do I need to get different suspension? Let me know. She’s a daily soon to be project! Any help is appreciated.

I know you can still get lowering springs pretty easily at a reasonable price. Good struts to go with them are expensive though.
As for coilovers, I duno but I remember something about civic ones working.

I’ve thought about doing some lowering springs but wouldn’t know which ones to get. Plus my struts are pretty old (stock from 1987) they are in decent condition as it sat in auction for 17 years. I just want to get some new coilovers on her, but I’m thinking new struts and lowering springs might be the way to go. If anyone has any information on how I can find coilovers for my car, it would be appreciated!

Eibach and H&R still make them I'm pretty sure, haven't looked in a while though. Last I saw they ran from 150 to 200$ for the set.
I got super lucky and found Dropzones on clearance for dirt cheap.

Found a few:

Honda Accord 86-89 Dropzone Lowering Springs by Dropzone - DZ1002 (http://www.slickcar.com/details/1626-lowering-spring-kits.asp)

I did find a full coilover setup but it runs about 1100 bucks so... lol

K Sports and D2s are both available. I haven't used either.
