eibach springs are frickin awesome.... they dont cost too much, and the ride quality is nearly unparalleled for that price.... they are only $300, unless you want coilovers which are more....

i know, just bag the car... now thats a cool idea.... of course then the bag setup would cost almost half as much as the car.... bad tradeoff

which coilovers, pashka? If you mean the ones originally linked, my answer is a question. Are you willing to take the time and effort to figure out, install, and test the stuff yourself? Are you willing to take everything apart and redo it if it doesn't work the first time? If your answer is no, so is mine.

The Arospeed "coilovers" suck balls as far a ride quality goes but they're not too bad anywhere else, just don't drop it too low without some way to adjust camber. I went through two sets of tires because I was stupid and didn't even think to fix that.

thanx for the replies smile.gif

eibach spring are only $200, but then I would have to get new shocks which is another $200 02.gif

Blue... I probably wouldnt be the person to go through all of that trouble just to test something, so I will let someone else be first smile.gif

Well what about those cheap ass springs made by arospeed and some other ones? You think it's not even worth bothering with them?

So i guess eibach is the way to go... but I'm not really satisfied with the drop 02.gif

I wouldn't say its a MUST, but you might as well do both while you have the car apart and it does help. Look at it this way...you'll have to change them eventually.
