lowering kit

i have an 04 sunfire and was wondering if anyone on here could recommend some good lowering springs that would give me an even drop

Best "even" drop would be Koni Yellows and Eibach Sportlines....IMO but that gets pretty darn low!

The easiest drop would be Tein H-Tech, D-Specs matched with some nice springs.

A good set up will run you $700 - $1,000!

Konis require cutting up the front strut cartridge and not everyone is up to doing that...out of the box is better if you don't have the skills or tools to do Konis.

Do a search on here for drops or search the member registry and take a look at some of the drops them view their profile to see what they are running.

That's what I do...see something I like I look at the profile to see what it is...works most times but no everyone keeps their profile updated.




Eh...old man with a Corvette now...it was bound to happen sooner rather than later right?

Also take a look at Gravana Tuning Great Website and good prices.

you dont need to spend that much. if you want a nice mild drop you can get a great setup for about 500 which are the eibach prokit and kyb agx struts

it would be some what level. if your looking to be able to adjust the heights though then yea you will be looking to spend about 700-1000

AGX + Pro Kit. Heard nothing but good things for that budget setup.


I'll go out of my way to clarify that warranty does not apply to drops below 1.5", just so you know.

I love my sprint springs with D-Specs... but I also have eibach sway bars and strut tie bars


There will always be someone faster than you, but thousands slower and dumber than you.
