lol well as the title says but first allow me to explain ... i purchased a coilover system off a forum member witch will remain nameless .. anywho ... now this was just a sleve coilover system and i got it cheep so i figured y not?.. he told me they will fit .. well after instalation and minor modificatin i realized that they actualy raised my car about an inch and a half ... i was very upset ... but i refused to be had .... so i spent 1.5 hours measuring and cutting .. now i have a semi slamed car with about an inch of wheel gap ... minimal negative camber and probably the most comfortable droped car ever ... it is al;ot stiffer but rides very nice not like a pillow or anything but not nearly as bouncy as everyone anticipated i will have some digital photos up soon as it was late when i finished and not a good time for picture taking ... but yes ... cut springs DO work .... and incase neone is wondering .. the kit was origonaly designed for a 97-02 prelude with 400 lb springs all the way around ... non progressive spring rate thus making cutting a more feasable option so as not to sacrafice the ride quality but yes to anyone who has been douped due to their ignorance remember there is a way of making everything work .. have a nice day
