TRD (Eibach) springs are wonderful springs. They'll drop your V6 nicely, and they keep stock ride very well. Go with those.

Glaring blue HID bulbs are NOT classy, and don't make your car look nice, no matter what that kid in the Civic told you.

TRD is Eibach. TRD just takes Eibach springs and rebadges them with their name.

Nah, they should be the same. They're the same springs, basically, just with different names. Either way, you're good with TRD. If I didn't get my Tein S. Techs (not offered for '04+, otherwise I would've recommended them), I would've gotten TRD.

Thats impossible... TRD messed up then. They can't possibly offer a 1.2-1.4" drop on a v6 when they offer a 1.4" drop for the 4cyl. The v6 is a lot heavier than the i4, and gets a much lower drop because of the extra weight. There's no way that the v6 drops less than an i4. I think they just don't know their own product.

You probably ordered them by now so my opinion doesn't matter as much unless by others wanting to lower sometime soon.

but I definitely recommend Eibach Springs for v6. Gives it an aggressive look. Front 2.0/ Rear 1.2. couldn't ask for a better stance.
