lowering

[SLEEK-CRX-SI]

Ummmm I def would not put coilovers on anything with wheels and an engine. bottom line THEY SUCK!!!!! I Have a lowered CRX SI that is pretty much lower than anyones CRX in the Atlanta area (by the way if any one wants to challenge this I'll meet you whenever and wherever and if your lower I'll give you $50 gauranteed) back to what I was saying Coilovers have the worst ride you can ever imagine. This is why: you have a coil that is very short but has a high tension rating. so your ridding down the street and you hit a good bump or two and your wonderin why your head is about to go through the roof? this little stupid POS invention they call a coilover that everyone is clammering about has to hold up the weight of your car. and how do you do that with such a small coil. High tension! so now when you hit a bump it tries to resist that force very qucikly hense the bouncyness of the ride. plus have you ever tried getting them all the same height? almost impossible! I've seen people riding down the street in their newly lowered car and not to my surprise but surely to their dissmay their car looks like a hurt limping lost dog. I play it off and say "hey man I like that drop what you got"? "Oh umm coilovers I think" Also have you ever tried re ajusting the ride hight?
Yep as you guessed it's a pain in the ass. Totally not worth it and if you got a good looking drop why change it kinda pointless. I could go on and on and on and on. I have two different cars with sick drops and have had plenty in the past cause thats what my friends and others know me for and I have never put coilovers on anything alse. The ride is 10X better and has better handling. I may not be the fastest on the road but I'll do 115mph on a blind curve any day. Beat that you dam Evos and SRT4's braggin rights biatch! Make a long story short I had a CRX si perfect condition. I put all this money into it and I'm riding down 85 and CRACK!! "what was that?" I say. SNAP!!! CLING!!!! WTF!?!?!? luckily I slow down to about 50mph and BAM!!!!!!!!!!!! I hear screeching tires and all I see is oncoming cars and big silver highway gaurd rails blur past as I'm spinning (which is pretty impossible in a CRX). So I manage to save it and just when I think it's over BAM!!!!!!!! a fucking truck bashes into the back of me doin at least 50mph! So now my back end is crushed, I get a ticket for altered suspension and to top it off the insurance would not pay for it b/c of the alterations. So I get my car back from the junk yard to do a last fairwell parting of the car and I discover that my fuckin coilover canister broke causing my car to drop already lower than what it was catching my tire under the frame which locked only one of my front tires at 50mph. You do the math it does not take a scientist to figure what happened next. Yep My little ol CRX went into a violent spin which I managed to save but......... the guy in the truck thought that was to simple and of course hits me. So as a last word "COIL OVERS LICK BALLS AND THEY KILL PEOPLE" So get a set for someone you don't like Today!!!!!
