There is no Spec R for the Fit.

 

Another happy customer, installed the springs about a week ago and I'm very happy whit the result. Ride comfort is improve and I can event feel the difference went I decided to push a little harder, less roll and nose dive. Coupled with Progress rsb plus a Revo Technica short shifter bring me a lot of smiles. The drop is a little more than expected pics on the forum don't reflect this.

 

did you buy them used?

 

I got those spring new forms Kspec racing, why are you asking?

 

and_ are you on base or sport GE?

 

Kenchan I have the lx model

 

is that the model with the factory swaybar in addition to the torsion bar or no?

 

I don't know about US but here in Canada there's 3 models base, lx, sport the lx as the same suspension as the base model, hope it clear things up for you.

 

^^ thanks. that probably means your car did not come with the factory stabilizer so your bar would definitely compliment your swifts nicely AND not over do the rear anti-sway.

my sport already has the stabilizer so im not sure 19mm is too big or not. i think it is. and from the read, the factory stabilizer is welded on or something. i cant remove it.

 

By what I read the sport sway is welded inside the torsion beam.

 

ahh, i see... yah, definitely can't remove it then on mine. hahaha. im hoping to find adjustable dampers down the road.

 

Shouldn't there be a bunch in Japan ?

 

It sounds like the Swifts are a fairly simple install for someone with a little mechanical ability, a floor jack and stands, and simple hand tools. I'm no mechanic, but I've changed oil, alternators, water pumps, rotated tires, etc. before. Are there any other special tools required?

Recommend a spring compressor for taking off the stock front springs. Don't need once you're putting in the Swift.

 

Just bought a set and I am anxiously awaiting their arrival! Is anybody running these in cold weather and snow? I'm in Michigan and not sure whether to install them now or wait for spring time. Any thoughts?

 

I would just install them. This time next year your gonna be riding on them anyway.

 

......excellent point.

 

Just curious, but did any of you guys notice a gas mileage improvement after installing these, especially on the highway?
