yes they should bolt right up. i had no problems with mine. and just did my ef last weekend and even after 15 years it was an easy task.

finally lowered!!!
took 1 week to install the coils lol if i had every thing ready and expected the lca bolt to snap it would have been done in one day


before







after














and my suspension set up in the rear
front is stock





only issues i have now are that my tires rub a little when the wheel is turned all the way and i hear a weird soft vibrating/clunking the front right
i needed new tires so i went with stock tire size 195/55/15 tires are kuhmo ecsta asx
i currently have 205/50/15 hopefully the stock size will stop the rubbing
and i will also soon get an alignment after the coils set in and i find a height i like

looks sweet, but rubbing with 205/50/15 shouldn't be there. i'm running the same size tires and spaced my rims 10mm and still don't rub. maybe you have to allign the car to stop the rubbing.

Yea i still havent aligned it new tires are coming monday
Only thing now is i hear a weird noise in the front right like something maybe hitting id have to take the tire off and take a look
Other than that the car rides smooth but can be a little bouncy on roads with bumps

Quick question if i get extended top hats will it make the ride a little less bouncy on the bumps? Also which ones would fit? Ive searched and it seems that the gc top hats might fit

I'm lowered on F&F type 1 and have blades your rubbing because you dropped it the full 2.5 inches and have wider tires you should have gotten 195/50/15R and picked it up .5 inch up to even it out having just enough Clearance you scrap the floor on bumps but it's better then being as low as you are
