DC5 Acura RSX Coilover Install How-To

DC5 Acura RSX Coilover Install How-To

This customer came in today for a coilover install and decided to make a video of it. Its a quick clips here and there for this video but at least you have an idea on what it takes to do this yourself. It took me 2 hours to complete the coilover install while filming on my own except the end when another customer showed up.

nice and simple. thanks!

I did all 4 on my vehicle a while back and the front end stayed higher than the back end. They’re not adjustable coil overs either. Placed the proper sides where they belong but I didn’t measure them. Didn’t come to mind since I didn’t think I’d have the issue. The rear did camber a little bit just ordered camber adjustment arms to fix it. Not sure if that will fix the height gap from the front of the vehicle. Any help is appreciated. Thank you

Rotor are backwards

Logan Newman says:

Instead of dicking around with a separated axle why not just remove the axle nut before you start? That's a "trick" to fix a problem that never should have existed in the first place.

Bro why are your tires not the same

Virtual Vapes says:

I wish you were local. I just bought the Koni yellow front inserts for my 2005 Acura RSX Type S. Looks like I'm going to have to do some adjustments on the stock housing to get these to fit properly. I've found some pretty detailed instructions online. My springs are still good. I'm replacing the sway bar endlinks on both fronts as well. I also bought new KYB top hats. Any advice before I begin? Where is your shop located?

mchevownr says:

Awesome video! Thank you for the tip about the axle. Too funny about the tires being different sizes!!

Chris Webb says:

Bro, what center caps are those that fit rpf1s? What car are they from and what size are your wheels? Center cap shows as 64mm and I haven't found any Acura caps for them right size.
