Only the trained eye can tell but to the average user you wouldn't know the suspension wasn't stock. Its a very very minimal drop but the improvement in handling is whats important.

I just solved my problem for this. Depending where you live, you can ship it to a US address and just pick it up. I'm only 1.5 hours from the border, so I'm just going to go get it myself. It'll cost a bit more for duty, gas, etc...but I think I can get them to my door, all said and done for around $450...which is still a huge savings.

I'm the same way. Go as aggressive as you can safely. Depending if you have aftermarket wheels and tires, it can still look great, while not hampering the DD ride quality and driveability.

Also, for those who ordered these. Did you guys just do the "Buy it Now"...or put in a lower bid? Just wondering if it's worth watching these like a hawk for $30.

are you getting the $299.99 that yourkeylessremote is selling? I believe that is supposed to be for a civic coupe.. i'm looking into the sedan version of hfp suspension but its more expensive .. but id rather be safe and get the sedan to get the proper spring rates...you can always try to give a best offer since the seller has a lot of this product that needs to be sold...goodluck!!

^ Yes, because I have an SI Coupe.

If I owned a sedan I would probably research it or just get the one that is specifically made for my car. It's a tough choice, though. People say the kit will work on your car...how big of a difference the spring-rates will be changed from coupe to sedan...I couldn't say.

Sorry, I wasn't sure what you had. The R18 and K20 have different part numbers as well as being a coupe or sedan and whether you have an AT or MT transmission (in some cases).

As follows: (2009-2011)

SI Coupe - 08W60-SVB-100
EX/LX Coupe - 08W60-SVA-100

SI Sedan - 08W60-SNX-100
EX/LX Sedan AT - 08W60-SNA-100A
EX/LX Sedan MT - 08W60-SNA-100B

Hope this helps. Check out Genuine Honda Accessories at Discount Prices - Authorized OEM Honda Accessories Dealer for part numbers and such if you want to reference them.

Ya.. i was looking at collegehillshonda for the part number as a reference.. but most people say that hfp suspension for si and non si are the same and should work.. just get the sedan if you drive the sedan and coupe if you have the coupe... so would this SI Sedan - 08W60-SNX-100 work on my r18 sedan a/t?

^ No idea. I always stay with parts that are designed for my car...part number, etc. You'd have to find someone that has done it before. Personally, I would order the correct part/part number. But that's just my 0.02.
