i wouldn't recommend doing that since the weight distribution b/w the coupe and the sedan are different. yes, they would probably work, but you're increasing your risk for suspension issues. there are several aftermarket springs out there. just look for them specifically for the si sedan.

the honda factory performance springs/strut set will be available in spring.. if your in it for the performance then wait for those.. if you just want to lower it for looks then you can find some good aftermarket kits on the net..

I just looked on the eibach site and the sportline part number is the same for both coupe and sedan.

According to Honda the springs rates are the same between the Coupe and Sedan Si. If you are just changing the springs (i.e., Eibach Pro or Sportlines), then no problem with the Coupe coils. However, the Struts/Dampners will be different due to weight bias and even though they will fit from the Coupe to the Sedan, they may not perform as well as a set made for the Sedan.

Hope that clears it up.
