I am planing to lower the stance of my 2005 T5 AWD with a set of Eibach Proline springs. I have used Eibachs on a 1988 CRX and was very pleased with the performance. I do not have a repair manual yet and have not inspected the suspension configuration. It appears that the V50 does not use a strut system, which may make the installation easier.

Q1: Is there someone out there willing to share the V50 repair manual with the rest of us? Trying to make a scurvy buck from CD copies of the shop manual is bull.... anyway...

Q2: The Eibachs are reported to lower the vehicle by 1.2" all around. Does anyone know if this drop will require camber adjustments?

Thanks!

 

the rear is easy to do... if i remember correctly, jack up the rear of the car, remove the wheels... the top of the shock is held in by 2 10mm bolts.. remove those so the LCA drops a bit more... yank out the stock spring, replace with the new one... installation is reverse of removal...

the front, if you did your own suspension in your honda will be the same... don't forget your spring comrpressor!!
