Which car sits the lowest on cylinders? I know the brackets 'can' be bolt in.. but alot of people do extra fabbing to get them lower, I think. I'm just not familiar with any cars really, I'm a truck guy.. I like the look of both cars, just wondering what differences are involved when getting both on air, and then going the extra amount to get them to lay completely out compared to just the bolt in common brackets. Any help's appreciated.. thanks.

Accords are much easier to get on the ground. But when they are laid out, they don't look nearly as low as civics do.

My wagon is on cylinders. I just made all new mounts and did a bunch of trimming to get the front crossmember on the ground.
To get a Civic down, you need to tub it and shorten the spindles. The spindles are the main reason my wagon isn't lower. If somebody comes out with a shorter (not drop) spindle there will be laid out Hondas everywhere.
But between the two, it is way easier to lay out an Accord.

Anyone have pics showing the clear difference in distance to the ground between a civic and an accord? I've seen differences.. but not sure if one car had more modification done to it, etc.. I'd like to see the difference with just regular bracketry. Thanks guys

It doesnt really matter which car u get, they will both lay on the ground, u just have to cut the shit out of them.
Bag the front and cylinder the back.
I hope you dont need a back seat!!

I'm trying to see pics of ones that haven't had the shit cut out of them, since it would be a daily.. and definitely need the backseat

I've been browsing through profiles.. but since I'm just not familiar with them, I dunno which are regular so to speak, and which ones have had some crazy fab work done to them..

This is my old accord, i had to cut the kit to get it to lay flat on the ground and not break the kit, but with out the kit it sat a few inches off the ground, maybe it was the 19" wheels.
