    Alright..Monster Truck Accord is ready for a lowdown

    Ok, Thanks to jim's amazing research I have decided on a Neuspeed/H&R with Koni Red setup. What I am concerned about is..how the koni reds are out of production. Revalve Blistiens seems out of my range.so is there a way for me to get my setup with other struts? My car use to have Koni Reds in them..but..my father dumped them when they died. We replaced them with GR-2's. So my question is..what are my options for struts for neuspeed/h&r and where can i get them?!


    Here is my other choice...since my dad raised the car 2inches..since my mom..busted a pair of foglights going up the driveway..(she doesnt seem to want to go slow up a driveway) my other choice is to just get stock springs..is it better to get stock from junkyard..or brand new?

    I can sell you a set ...no definitely lower your car and those springs are very good. Try very, very hard to get the konis because you don't want to have a second-rate suspension. The only other option for struts besides konis or bilsteins, are tokicos but these are not recommended for use with lowering springs--as Jim will tell you, the tokicos cannot even handle the softest lowering springs (which is the H&R/neuspeed springs) which are only about 26% stiffer. I'm running them with H&Rs and it's ok, but anybody that has run the koni setup will tell you otherwise. Basically, decide what you want now, while konis are still available.

    No...my dad raised the car two inches BECAUSE my mother wouldnt slow down on driveways and my dad didnt want the car to scrape all the time. Wheel Gap isn't a stranger to me..

    neuspeed coils are one of the softest that you might have known from jim. And running neuspeed with konis is not right. IMO neuspeed is suited for Tokikos. So get tokiko blue gas shocks if u wanna run neuspeed coils.
