yeah i'm not really familiar with EKs... like J.EG said, i was told that the front forks are the same as DC2/DC2R, but you need either ITR/DC2R rear LCAs, or EK9s from a civic Type-R.

like what J.EG said... but i've never tried the stiffest setting because i was on 17's and it was already too rough for me at the lower setttings 
also don't go superlow like i did... the dust boots will bunch up inside the springs and tear. this is common among most coilovers out there. the new dust boot i got from a&j is shorter to compensate for this... unfortunately at the time i bought it they only had the one boot remaining and everything else was on backorder from japan.

does it lower nicely on a EK? and does these T1R give good cornering?
how's the wear on them, any noise?
bump bump , *buy* it

i had these on an integra, so i'm not sure what it would be like on an EK (hopefully J.EG can help me out here). i didn't play around much with the damping settings... i think i had it on the 3rd lowest setting, where it gave what i felt was the best compromise in ride/handling i needed for daily driving.
before these i used to have stock shocks with tanabe lowering springs, which was a disappointment. the car wasn't sitting level, and when the shocks started to fail prematurely, i had a lot of bouncing going on 
as for good cornering... i liked it, but it's very dependent on how your setup is. i've seen people shell out big $$$ for coilovers, but are still on 14" steelies and all seasons 
condition... there is some surface rust on the threads, but it wipes off with wd40. it's unavoidable... i don't tell you how much it rains here  . but i didn't go out in the winter so there is none of that white fuzzy corrosion stuff on it.
when they were still on the car, they were not making any weird noises. it's just the torn dust boots that's an issue, as i can only provide one new replacement. you'll need to contact a&j racing to see when they can get more.

bump bump , *buy* it | hmm depending how low u wanna go. im driving on 16"s and the rears are tucking a bit with more drop to go. the fronts however are tucking a little and thats as far as itll go. ill show u some pics if anyones interested ill post em on the thread if i can. hmm cornering? id say they are really good on hard corners.. i liked em with azenis/spoons sw388's but everyones different right? since i upgraded from stock shox + H&R race springs to these, im not sure of any other coilovers iv never had anything else. dampening is realllly sweet cuz its only 4 adjustments not like 36 or wtv.. and each one makes a really big difference in feel. and i too ride on 3rd lowest. hope that helps some.

back to the top.
no lowballers or timewasters please. i've unfortunately had a few people who didn't show up or wanted $400 off the price because of a $20 dust boot
also not interested in trades. i do not need your stock parts because i don't own an integra anymore.

pm replied.
i don't know enough to explain in detail all the parts and how coilovers work... i'm afraid of giving out bad/false information
please contact a&j with technical questions as well as the cost to install, as they are a T1R retailer.
