^ collegehillshonda (a sponsor on here) has it for the same price..

maximus20895 · 06-30-2009, 02:51 PM

^yea, but that deal ends TODAY!

prestoguy · 06-30-2009, 03:00 PM

oh wow youre right. totally forgot about that.

luckily i got mines already =)

maximus20895 · 06-30-2009, 03:05 PM

haha. Yea. By the time I decided I wanted it, I didn't have enough money or time to get money before today..

I just contacted my local honda dealer and they wanted $693.60 plus tax..so that would be around $762.60 total

prestoguy · 06-30-2009, 03:11 PM

^ are you gonig to get it off that other site?

maximus20895 · 06-30-2009, 03:13 PM

probably. I doubt collegehillhonda will have the deal past today. I don't even have a job..it's hard to find one..****k..

When I called CHH last week, the gentleman on the phone said that the sale ends today, but they will continue to sell some items they have in bulk at the discounted price until they run out. Worth giving them a call and double checking.

yea...i will when i have the money..ugh

I just did my install today and its uneven. In the front i have about a two finger gap and on the rear passanger side its the same but the rear drivers side is less than a two finger gap. I know it has to settle but I dont want it to be uneven has anyone have this happen.?

any pics? do u have 17" or 18"S?

maximus20895 · 07-03-2009, 02:31 AM

hmm. I wouldn't worry. Are you sure you go the left and right shocks/springs on the correct side? I don't know what else could go wrong. If everything bolts up I don't see a chance of error. Hmmm

just let it settle. I was freaking out because my rears were a finger width different when I first installed. After a week they were perfect. no worries

maximus20895 · 07-03-2009, 02:57 AM

That's what I thought. How was the install an how do they perform?

i wouldnt be too worried. let it settle and then see if you have the same problem

just installed mine yesterday! got an alignment today and i dont have the adjustable rear arms so camber cant be adjusted. they said my left rear is at -2.3 which is fine but the right is at -2.9. does this mean that something went wrong on the install on the right rear? am i gonna have to get a camber kit to fix it or is -2.9 ok as long as i rotate my tires often?

Thanks!!

maximus20895 · 07-03-2009, 07:35 PM

hmm that's odd. You don't need a camber..

Same happened to me. -2.3 on the left and -2.8 or so on the right. I got a camber kit because I want less camber in the rear than the front for handling. Also, the right is out of spec so it will wear the tire more.

hey i might buy a used hfp coupe si suspension kit he has 10k miles...does anybody know if the hfp struts wear out or anything?

maximus20895 · 07-05-2009, 12:25 AM

of course they wear out, every strut does. I doubt that they would wear out as fast as an aftermarket one. Probably the same time to wear out a stock one vs and HFP one. .. They wouldn't come close to wearing out @ 10k though.

prestoguy · 07-05-2009, 02:39 AM

^ yeah, youre ok at 10k. but eventually they will wear out
