Im looking at getting the basic eibach kit and im wondering what eveyone has to say about them

 

Sportlines all the way...

 

Sportlines lower the car too far for serious performance use or (depending on the roads in your area) good/acceptable ride quality. A car that's lower may have the appearance of having better handling/cornering, but the relation between ride height and actual performance is not nearly as simple as the appearance suggests.

Much has been posted on the general topic of "lowering springs".

Justin - If the choices here are limited to Eibach's offerings, it'll probably come down to whether your appearance preferences or desire for functional performance is more important. Your call.

well im going through les schwab and they carry H&R and eibach as far as i know and i know eibach has a good rep

 

Here is a thread that discusses the various springs and might help you with your decision

H&R's are also a quality spring, though my experience (different car) is that the drop runs a little more than advertised.

For the price..... I would go H&R. Or look into the new TEIN "S-Tech" springs for the S197. If they dont sell them, shoot me an e-mail. eric@impulsecars.com

Even Ford Racing uses TEIN on their Drift Race Car. Pretty good stuff and a killer silent player in this field.

 

i had s tech...dont like them at all...my pro kits are 100 times better...but if i could do it again id get H&Rs or some steedas...

 

as a daily driver in a city...pro kit all the way...

 

I would imagine Ford uses Tein on their drifting car (drifting isn't racing) because they are after the tuner market, which Tein is popular with.
