ebpda9 Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 so is it a good idea for long term use that a 2.5i get H-tech installed? i still thinking about it, back last year when i first got my car, my chubby friends jumped in and lowered the car at least an inch, when i came across a dip they would jump up and down hoping that i would scratch my bumper....thus very indecisive for the lowering springs... never lowered my legacy so i would not know. but the accord and the integra never had a problem. also the integra has less than 3" of ground clearance. right now i am debating between htechs and progress springs. i think in the end the progress will win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miles Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I love the H-tech, install was easy, ride is great (almost stock) but ofcourse body roll has decreased and so has the wheel well. i love my h-techs it's little stiffer than stock its just perfect Could some more Legacy GT owners chime in. What is the difference between Stock struts/springs vs. Stock struts/H-Tech springs with regards to:Ride comfort:What differences have you noticed? How close is it to stock?Out of 10, rate the ride comfort compared to stock. Hitting bump stop(s): Are you hitting them more than stock? Big bumps & big potholes:Since H-Tech’s are progressive springs, do you feel big bumps & big potholes more than stock? Ride height:Do H-Tech’s lower .9" front & rear ?

Rockets GT Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I have had my htechs on for about a month now(thanks again Billy). Here are my opinions to your questions: Ride Comfort-I can certainly tell that I have different springs on because I can feel each and every bump more. I don't mind because I like the performance aspect of the springs immensly. The new height is PERFECT imho. Bump Stops-I haven't hit the bump stops any more than when I had the oem springs on. Big Bumps and Pot Holes-I have found myself paying a lot more attention to the road to avoid bumps and pot holes because when you hit a hole with any kind of speed, you feel it good. I live in Denver which has it's fair share of bumps and pot holes, but I don't see myself wanting to change springs anytime soon. Ride Height-I didn't measure the height before or after but I'll tell you what, the car is lowered more that .9 inches. I would guess it is at least 1.5 inches in the front and back. I sometimes wonder if I was shipped the stechs until I look at the pics of people how have them and realize their cars are much lower than mine. I give these springs a thumbs up and would recommend them. Rocket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
