A-spec suspension before and after

Ok I finally got them and installed them last weekend. It took me, my dad and brother in law about 1.4hrs to do the install. worked very well and overall was very very easy to do with no lift at all. we used two jacks and some foot power and then didn't even have to use air power tools to get the job done.

here is some before and after pics, sorry I didn't have my camera with me to get all the good pics during the install but this is the front driver side wheel before and after installation.

as for ride quality and inpressions after driving it on some very windie roads.

just great, ride quality is just as good as stock as far as comfort and even better than stock with nose dive, and cornering is just a blast now.

Highly recommend it to anyone that is considering getting a small drop and being able to do the job yourself.

funny thing was too all the talk about the "L" and "R" stickers on the back shocks of the Aspec, on my kit they were on the front shocks and there were two self locking nuts that we couldnt find out where they went and couldn't locate them in the actual instructions. I think they are just there for replacement of stock ones if you need em.

Yes

For BlueTSX05

When you sell your OEM Suspension, please tell the buyer that they needs the top pillow mount as your A-Spec has used it.
