Difference between SiR suspension Vs. DX
Hey, just wondering whether SiR shocks and springs will fit in a 1998 DX hatch?
If so, will my ride height be lower? What differences will I notice? thanks. |
will bolt up 100%
as in diff, I dont think you will notice any height diff at all |
but u should notice a difference in braking, because ull be switching to bigger brakes in the front and ull have disks instead of drums in the back :thumbup:
|
hes asking about springs and shocks, not about the entire suspension.
|
im not changing the brakes, only the shocks. So i guess i wont notice any difference.
|
wouldnt the ride quality be better?
|
Yes you will notice a difference, and its in the spring rates..
Your car now.....96-00 EX - 165F/80R (P/P) SiR suspension ....99-00 Si (EM1) - 201F/99.8R (P/P) |

Higher the number...the more stiff it is.
P is for a progressive springs. |
I think that number (SiR) translates to somewhat F4K/R2K
Stiffer springs needs to work with shocks that are designed for it. If you switch a, say, F8K springs on a stock shock, ride will be stiff but won't be as nice as if the shock was made to work with an 8K spring. |

What if you were to pair up the SiR shocks with aftermarket springs (ie. H&R Sport) on the DX. Would there be an improvement in ride quality using the SiR shocks as opposed to the DX shocks? Will the SiR shocks eventually blow as well?
