97 needs to handle better - 2/19/2007 12:28:52 PM    projectr13b   Posts: 2 Joined: 2/19/2007 Status: offline I have a 97 lx sedan and i need to make it handle somewhat better than stock. my first purcahse is going to be some springs and struts on friday. anyone have any preference best for an accord. i was thinking of going koni or tokico with eibach springs. i would like a slight drop, but i am not too worried about getting it to low. right now all i have suspension wise is a front strut bar, and my shocks are shot, so they need some attention haha. thanks for the help.

After that you could add a rear strut bar, and front and rear swaybars.  That should tighten up your suspension quite a bit. _____________________________ 1994 Accord LX four door Bomz SRI w/ K&N filter 194k miles (in reply to projectr13b) Post #: 2
