does anyone have pics of their tC on H&R springs?
do TRD struts lower your car at all?

thanks guys! :D

 

i havent seen any pics on H&R and no, TRD struts dont lower your car.

 

'05TC916' had H&R springs installed on his...they look really good.

"when I ordered my springs only TRD and H&R were available. I've ran H&R on all my honda's and Acuras and have had good luck with them. I just wanted to kill that gap it had with the stock springs. The front dropped 1.5 inch and the rear 1.25. H&R says 1.4 front 1.3 rear. The car still aligned into specs with no camber kits required. It has a lowered look but not that slammed look. Whichever way you go, the ride should be good at least thats what I've been reading. People with the sprint 2 inch drop says it still rides cool."

Heres a pic of his car...

 

if you wanna see my car, i should have it lowered on Tein Stechs on TRD struts sometime next week...im on Oahu also

 

Definitely post pics after the install!

Curious to know how well the coils are going to work paired up w/ the TRD struts and shocks. It was to my understanding that some Mfr.'s developed there aftermarket components around oem equipment???

But think'in about it alittle bit...I really don't see it as being a problem, except for the change in handling. The TRD struts and shocks shouldn't be made any different, I know the assemblies wouldn't be, aside from the pistons travel, being much shorter?

You'll have to give us the 411 after everythings bolted up!

Guess I'll wait a bit longer to install mine when I order mine later this week. This would just save alot of time, knowing I could change out all the suspension components all at one time, rather then 2 or 3 different times...

 

ok ok, I just did a drop on trd struts and GOOD LORD am I tired. The struts come very short, the shaft comes short to where you have to put the spring in a comnpressor and tighten to the cracks. The struts than strech out after the bolt is tightened on the spring. I highly recomend having a spring compressor with the TRD struts and a lot of patience. :sad: But the ride after is crazy, it feel perfectly smooth and hits the corners like a race car. The trd struts, hard install, perfect ride after. :D

 

When you refer to the drop w/ the TRD struts...was that with TRD coil springs, or the TEINs?

 

I used the trd springs on the drop. Not sure how they would work on the tiens.
