Installing Maxpeedingrods Coilovers on a 03-07 Honda Accord

[@Shellshock361]

This video was a life saver when installing these. The bottom part is thicker than the struts I had on and wouldn't fit the wishbone. Putting it in there by hand first then using a jack to put the wishbone up into the strut worked perfectly. THANK YOU

[@Zspeed]

Awesome, thanks so much for watching!👍🏁

[@lexisvhi3134]

Hell yeah! After having a civic EK die on me, I got an accord to be a daily but just wanted it to be a little nicer. Very nice to see someone work on a Honda accord 7th gen with the maxpeeding rods. Good stuff my guy, great vid 👏🏽

same shi happen to me 97 civic to a 03 accord

[@NiMi93]

0:07 seconds in and I can tell that this guy is HAPPY!

Got a 2003 accord v6 coupe 6 speed for my first car about 8 months ago thinking about picking these up thanks for the video explaining how to install them so effectively.

Thanks for this! I bought my 1st BMW 330i with some junk ebay coilovers on it and had a hell of a time getting them set right. had to delete the front sway bar and get rear adjustable rods and just had a bunch of issues. It rides great now but squeaks terrible. My girl has a 03 Accord 4 door that I put stock 17s on from my daughters crashed 06 coupe. I'm getting ready to paint the car Nardo grey and now she wants it lowered and I said no fricken way until I found your video. For under $300 and a couple hours in the garage I'm going to do it! Happy wife happy life! I'm trying to avoid buying her a new car so I've added the Xtrons stereo, dash cam, backup cam, new speakers and remote start. Once it's painted and on coilovers it should buy me a couple years! LOL Thanks again

[@Zspeed]

Thanks so much for watching, the Truhart coilovers will last a lot longer than the Maxpeedingrods and cost about $500.00. Don't forget to subscribe!!!

I absolutely love your voice overs bro!!! Can’t wait to see how these look dropped! I ordered that Megan racing test pipe (wasn’t easy to find) but it came in early this morning and now my check engine light is gone (also got a new denso O2 sensor) love the way it sounds even with the stock muffler!

DENSO EVERYTHING LOL but like for real I still need to buy a new/refurbished Denso IACV because mines was stuck took it apart and cleaned it now it works like new. I hate when I buy a "genuine honda part" and the part is a Chinese no brand junk that actually doesn't even work the car computer is probably saying "can't read Chinese so no work try again with DENZO" 🤣

[@stock.wheel.shawty]

i have had mXr coils on my 2005 accord since july of 2020, and it's now march 29, 2022. you WILL have immense trouble trying to get both the front and the rear OEM suspension out. those things barely fit in as is, so have a buddy help you out, and watch your ABS sensors in the rear. i can say that the first problem you'll run into is the struts squeaking. just use some decent lubricant and you'll be okay. the next thing is that the rears sit like monster trucks with proper preload adjustment, so you may need to do some fenagling to get it to sit lower (watch out for rear camber and toe-in though!). also, the spring rates are 10k front and 6k rear, which is not that stiff. if you wanna go low, seek other coilovers. the aforementioned rev9s have 12k/8k, which is better, i guess. the spring ID is 70.5mm, so good luck trying to find stiffer spring replacements lol. other than that, i've had no issues since then, but i'm losing trust for them slowly. my advice would be to save your cash and buy some rev9 hyper street IIs. especially since not all mXr coils for these cars have adjustable damping, because mine do not, unfortunately. honestly, though, these coils are nowhere near as bad as your typical suspension snobs will say. they've lasted me this long anyways. so if you're tight on cash, go for it. great video, z-speed!

[@rookietoprobuildz]

Great video! One of the best DIY vids I've seen... I have the same yr accord that I use as a daily and am considering buying same Maxpeeding coilovers... I've read in some reviews that they make knocking sounds... Was curious if you experienced that?

[@Zspeed]

Yes, after a few months they started to fail, I would recommend checking out Truhart coilovers!! Thanks so much for watching!

[@honkbob]

@@Zspeed Great video. I was just going to ask about failing.... I have a few Accords for my kids. '06/07s. KYB on one for kid with better roads, they don't well IMO on bad roads. Monroe Quickstruts for the other. Do you have opinions on those brands?

I like KYB, but Monroe are a well-known brand!!

[@stolaola6313]

Thank you!

[@dirtmcgirt7125]

I actually didnt have to separate the knuckle from the upper control arm. There is a way to manuever the strut out the rear of the wheel well if you move the sensor cable out the way.

[@angelmods5064]

just wondering are you still rocking those coilovers?? I'll love to hear a small summary on how they been doing for you and were they worth it? not just because they send you some free coilovers but personally I wonder how do they do on bumps and potholes and smooth road and much more!!

[@angelmods5064]

im deciding from Truhart or Maxspeedingrods.. what you think z-speed?

[@Zspeed]

Truhart might last longer than Maxpeedingrods.

[@Zspeed]

Maxpeedingrods started out great, but after a few months they started to rapidly lose their dampening abilities! You really do get what you pay for. I would recommend you spend more money on something like BC coilovers or Truhart coilovers!

[@mcdus78]

I would love to lower my 2006 Accord. Looks sick!

[@relaxgaming8872]

I got the same car. Daily driven. No way I change Orem suspension rides perfect no matter the wheel gap 😂

[@rosieclark3661]

The OEM strut won’t slide through and make contact with control arm if you had properly tightened the secure lock bolt to the collar you won’t believe how many Honda’s I’ve come across that had suspension work done with the strut collar secure bolt outright missing or half tightened 😂

[@syykes]

Thanks man

[@Samuel-ju6yv]

Wanted to get a pair for my accord but everyone keeps telling me these are horrible quality and won’t last long

That's true, they don't last that long. For longer lasting coilover's try Truhart coilover's.

[@rileyblackard6182]

great video but that "speed sensor" is actually a ABS sensor. Speed is measured in the transmission.

[@steriskyline4470]

The abs sensor is called the wheel speed sensor, of the wheel speed doesn't match on all 4 wheels, that means the wheel is slipping which engages the abs.

[@1tyyang]

Hey ZSpeed have you tested it on the high way how is it ?

[@Zspeed]

Great ride for about 3 months, then they started losing their ride quality! I would recommend Truhart coilovers now, better quality, and they only cost around 500.00 or so! Thanks so much for watching!

[@stock.wheel.shawty]

speaking from experience, on highways, these things ride pretty good. i don't use the highway a lot, so i didn't notice a change in ride quality after a while. i agree with z-speed on this one tho. truharts or rev9s would be better.

So these don't last long,can you explain what this means? does the car become undrivable, shock leaks, etc?

[@Zspeed]

They tend to lose their dampening ability rather quickly, so large dips or speed bumps lead to the car bottoming out! I will be installing Truhart Streetplus coilovers soon with a video that explains the problems with the Maxpeedingrods! www.kseriesparts.com/TRU-TH-H808.html?gclid=CjwKCAiAzrWOBhBjEiwAq85QZ4q-O0UNRGN7HQ_pQKgGnSntuNqc4PXWw6kygkBcdUJiIe7iS_EC_RoCizAQAvD_BwE

[@stock.wheel.shawty]

the fronts become a little bouncier over time, and the fronts tend to squeak after about a year or so. i wouldn't say undrivable tho. no leaks yet on mine, since i have the non-adjustable damping.
