I remember a long time ago, when my dad and I wanted to lift our Suzuki Sidekick, someone told us to use a set of 3g accord coils from the rear strut and it will raise the Sidekick 2".

I have 2 questions.

#1. Are the front and rear coils the same?

#2. Is 2" too low for 3g?

the front and rears are different. rears are a little longer I think, and 2" is easily feasable. you'll have to adjust camber though. I think there's even some members on here that are lower than than. somewhere between 1.5" and 2" is perfect in my opinion. it looks the best. although I really hate the slammed look with the rims tucked under the fenders.

I agree ^^ I just want to make my cool 14" rims look bigger ;)

I'm gonna need to do a 1 1/2 in the rear, and 2 in the front, cuz my sub box lowers my car quite a bit! Nah...

Awesome. Good responce...

Has anyone tryied this setup?

not that I know of. but you could do the D2 coilovers like here http://www.3geez.com/forum/showthread.php?t=59533 those are height adjustable. I think that's what I'm gonna get for my car, since I want something better than tokicos, and I don't want to have to try and find konis and then pay to get them rebuild with the proper specs.

lol, 2" is doable... i was dropped about 3"-3/12" when i had mine...

go on ebay, get some coilovers for a 90-93 accord and adjust to your likings... :welcom:
