Euro R suspension into CF4 Sir-T

Hi just wondering how hard it would be to fit and how much I could expect to pay for second hand euro r suspension? Just wanting to sharpen up the handling a bit. Cheers

Re: Euro R suspension into CF4 Sir-T

i just bolted a set of Euro R struts into my CF4 - its a bit trickier than the older accord suspension set ups, but it can be done easy enough - anywhere between $100-$150 for a set seems to be about right

I paid $100 for a complete spring/shock combo - just hunt around on trade-me, it haven't driven one on standard suspension, it had jamex's in previously, and handles almost as well as the jamex, and is a lot more use-able, i.e. i can get in and out of my driveway now! but its still lower than standard!
