DC2 DB8 DC5 Couple of quick DC5 questions

[Grunty]

I've got two questions and I think both should be relatively straight forward.

1st one is regarding lowering springs, I still have the springs that I lowered my CTR on, i only had them on the car for about 3000 miles so they are still fairly new, will these fit the DC5? I think the answer is probably no, but I thought I would check.

Secondly does anyone know if I would be able to source a standard front splitter through Honda in the UK. Mine came with a carbon fibre splitter on it and i'm not sure if i want to keep it on as it looks a little out of place on a white car. If not the carbon one is the same shape as the standard one so I could just get it painted.

Thanks in advance for any help.

You can get the splitter through Honda, it would be ordered from Belguim.

Most springs are DC5/EP3. What springs are they?

I've got 2 sets of springs. One set are cobra that I didn't like when they were on the Civic and I can't remember for the life of me what the other set are. Both sets are sitting in a mates garage just now.

I also have a set of D2 coilovers that came with the DC5. They weren't fitted because one was leaking, I beleive spares are easy to come by for these, but I haven't had a proper look to see where it's leaking from. I'm not 100% I want to fit these though. I do a 60 mile round trip to work every day and want to keep a semi-decent ride. They do have adjustable dampening as well as adjustable hight and pillow ball (is that right?) mounts. I think they're around the 700 quid mark on Unit 8's website.

And if I do just put springs on I have camber arms and bolts that I never got round to fitting on the Civic.

Your EP3 springs will fit a pre-facelift Teg but not the facelift
