http://www.importrp.com... i plan on getting some kyb's and probably eibach springs...can someone conform if kyb is the same with tockio's how they can only handle no more than a 1.25 drop or it will bottom out...

nah man, kyb's are basically oem replacements with a fancy name. tocicko's a deffinatley stiffer than oem but not the greatest if you plan on running stiff springs ( especially if ur slammed ). maybe some revalved bilsteins or something. look around dude. u will find the info u need.

I was just messing with him, hope he knows that
lol yea i know your messing its all good...but yea i just PM you back the bilstein one's just too pricey for me right now... tockio and kyb would be the best for me right now andi just wanna do a 1.5 drop...dont wanna mess up the geomtry so much...
what do you plan on using for springs? btw.. KYB and Toki's are damn near the same as for rebound valving. Toki's are blue, GR-2's are silver. Which color do you like more? ..that's you answer as to what to choose if you're stuck between the two and the prices are similar.

i like the way you put it lol...heres my 2 options 1. i drive the accord for another way then get a different car or 2 i keep the carr but my dad would have to keep paying for the replacements... and if he willing to keep it then i would buy the shocks and springs...but as for the shocks it all depends on how much do i have...but as for springs wise...either H&R or eibiach... just a 1.5 drop would just be fine with me...
k, so on that note, a sick economy setup would be Eibach SportLine springs with GR-2's out back, and spring the extra couple $$ for Koni's or revalved Billsteins up front. The GR-2's or Toki's would not hold out very well up front, but would be better than the existing shocks if they're shot. If all the existing shocks are fine, then don't replace any of them, and just do the Eibach S/P's, then save your pennies for Koni's or Bill's up front. The rear springs are actually (based on what Eibach tells us) softer than the oem's, so an oem shock in decent shape should be fine for you. The front is key though.
