Are there any trick to installing rear springs?

Suspension FAQs
I didn't use a spring compressor when I put 740 springs on my 760 rear end & pitched the worn out Nivomats. After lowering the axle (car was on stands), with the shocks out, the springs were a piece of cake to get out & install. Just had to be carefull when seating them to the towers, so they would stay in place, whilst putting load back on them, prior to putting on the new shocks.

You have two choices. The best, and more expensive choice is to buy Ground Control coil overs which come with a variety of Eibach springs. Or, you can buy a set of Integra or Civic Wagon springs from the junkyard. On my car, I have the stock torsion bars and a set of Integra springs with one coil cut off. This combination works well.

I found that the resident firmware with a firmware level of 5Axx and up checks the OEM ID of the incoming firmware. The OEM ID is redundantly stored at a fixed location in the firmware file just for this purpose. The OEM ID 0 (standard) is accepted by all drives, except IBM. After patching the audio firmware file with OEM ID 0 I could update from any non-IBM firmware version. The IBM OEM drives were a bit tougher.

This is generally an MTU issue that we've covered on the Enternet and RASPPPoE guides. XP users, see the Enternet guide if you're using XP's built-in PPPoE client. RASPPPoE is probably still a better option with XP. Alternatively it may be a misconfiguration if using static IPs on the client PCs with ICS or a Router. See the answer above. This generally happens if you're on a 256 kbs plan. Upgrading to a 512 plan generally cures it, but there are occasional exceptions.
