yo,
saw this little advertisement in the new SCC.. wanted to ask/share? Tein makes S.Tech springs for the 90-93 accord... i was wondering if these would work on ours since the Skunk2's coilovers for the 90-93 accord work(?)... i want them too.

You can only use "springs" made for the 3rd gen, 4th, 5th gen ect springs cannot be used. Coilovers are a different story.

And since you mentioned the skunk2 coilovers I'll tell you right now they are really REALLY! stiff. Do not use them unless you have the money to buy revalved Koni's or bilsteins.

Ok I just looked at the Tein home page www.tein.com and looked up the spring rates for those tein 4th gen springs. They are to soft, no really they are, 246lbs in the front is to soft. The H&R's/Neuspeeds are at a 1.5" drop and should be considered the minimum rate, notice that the Tein's are at a 2.1"drop!!! NOT GOOD, cars equipped with that much of a drop and that low of a rate will bottom out unless you baby the car.

Since we can't use those springs anyway's I know its kinda dumb to mention the above, but I thought it was important enough to point out.
