It's not a VW so I have no idea where to start (haha) - where can I find info/prices on lowering a year 2000 Honda CRV in Melberg?

Cheers

try peders and the such. you should be able to change the springs for king heavy duty which are an inch lower or more extreme methods

One or two in each footwell should do the trick.

Pretty easy to do, just need some spring compressors.
Kingsprings KHFL-112 fronts and KHRL-112 for the rears. Should lower it 2"
Pedders sportsryder springs are good, but not usually as low as kings. If you call them they will give you the exact measurements though, and the prices. King will be cheaper I think. Get them from Repco/Bursons. Ususally around $100 an end, but everything with Honda is exy!!!!
Pedders no's - fronts 2292 and rear 2293...
yes im bored.
good luck, good to see you want to lower everything too!

hahah.. thanks man

Has anyone used the Jap brands like Tien or HKS etc...? Would these be 'better'? No doubt they'd be more expensive..

do they do just springs?? Ive seen tien full adjustable strut setups, not springs alone. Are you building a race CRV? Their struts are real nice units.
