Lowering & Warranty

Does lowering your car void your warranty? I heard it does....just checking before I decide to get some springs......

Warranty Issues are based on methodical "CAUSE & EFFECT" The modification of a specific part must be related to the specific damage incurred. If you blow your struts/shocks prematurely...YES? If you wreck your tranny..NO?

huh well maybe ill try a further radius on my list of shops (honda wants too much for an alignment), every place within my area... reno and sparks vacinity, said that they would not have the specs until october when they can purchase them at a lower price. im not too worried since i marked all of the bolts as i uninstalled the oem springs, but if worse comes to worse ill just get new tires.

oh and im riding on my brand new skunk2 springs, free of charged as the title states above ... i guess i should get some pics up now, ill wait till the weekend so i can have her cleaned too...

The alignment specs are in the owner manual
At the end with the oil and coolant specs

Honda has the specs. My old job had the specs in the alignment machine also.
I got mine done for free at Coggin. My friend did it.

The only thing that can be adjusted is front toe. My front and rear camber was fine. Im on T1R V1 springs. I cut the rears too.
