    so took the car in to the garage last weekend to get oem springs back on for the winter, but they said one of the shock bolts has seized and was going to shear, and was welded to the bush... so they ordered some new bolts and a bush and took it back yesterday. they changed the back ones okay, then found that the spacers on the front shocks (to raise the spring cup) were well And truly stuck, and would have been to high for the oem springs so all back to normal... even lower than last winter because of the extended ball joints... so I'm snow plough Brown this year again.

    just been catching up on your thread - glad you've kept her.. looks sweet. and that plasti dip looks pretty cool... would it be good for bumper strips and the like?

    might be worthwhile trying a lower pressure just to rule it out if nothing else. I know when we got the wife's accord it had tyre pressures about that mark, and although the steering response was good it was awful in the wet... going to the recommended pressures helped a lot. also, in your first post you mention weight in the back, are you carrying much in the boot?
