Default Lowering 03 Cobra

Thinking about installing an Eibach spring kit that will lower car 1-1.5 inches. Anyone done this and what else will I need? Any pics or performance issues would be greatly appreciated. TIA

I have not done this yet but when I do i plan on going with either eibach or steeda springs. The drop won't be that low which is good if you plan on doing longtubes like me. I believe you will also need to buy caster camber plates and install them at the same time as you do the springs.

I put the eibach pro-kit springs on my 01 (shouldnt be much different) and all you have to have is springs. Most guys on here say thatCC plates are mainly for dramatic setups. It's a pretty straight forward and easy install. Termi guys correct me if I'm wrong

How much clearance will you have if you do the h&r race springs along with having longtubes?

562cobra: Do you got any sound clips of your car with your bassani exhaust?
