Eibach Sportline vs. Pro Kit
Monday, October 17, 2005 1:20 PM
I just wanted to get some peoples opinions on these two lowering springs. I'm getting ready to lower my car and I was just wondering what you all thought of these springs. I have a 97 z24 and its my daily driver. I know the sportline is a 1.7 to 2.4ish drop, but is going lower worth sacraficing the ride? i know either way im gonna lose the smooth ride....just wanted some peoples opinions. theyre both about the same price so im just curious... thanks

sorry about the double post. also is it "ok" to just do the springs with out causing any damage or do i absolutly need to get struts and what not? i have a friend who had the sportline on his sunfire and he said he didnt replace his struts or anything......just making sure...thanks again.

i have the sportlines, love them. i didnt do struts yet cuz i didnt have the money, but i would recommend doing the struts at the same time. another reason i didnt do the struts is i just love an excuse to work on my car and get away from the rents. but yea, without the struts (koni or tokico d-spec) the ride is kinda harsh. if u have the money do it all at once.


this is my sig

I'm on Sportlines and Tokico D-Specs, and you cant tell its lowered. Ride is amazing.

Stock struts I doubt will last long or feel even near as nice, but its your money.

lowering on stock struts is bad. they will blow and the ride will be crappy. just save your money and get konis and have them all installed at the same time

I have the prokit/AGX combo, and i am in love with it... Dropzone springs on stock struts broke soo much stuff on my car i have just reacently got it all fixed before i put her away for storage. New Cv shafts and wheels bearings.... i only have 58K miles on my 99.... so that tell you somthing. I am not going to go that low again, replacing the shafts weren't hard, but its somthing i care not to keep doing when they go. The lower you go the more stress you put on the shafts.
