What are you lowered on ?
Sunday, August 17, 2008 11:05 AM
Just curious as to what everyone is lowered on, your favorite combinations and such. Tryin to see what the majority have versus just knowing the popular names and someone sayin oh yea Eibach! or oh yea Dpsecs!!! etc. Want some facts etc from personal experience.

Want the same drop as Eibach Sportlines (What I have now). Just debating to change springs or not. Are Eibach Sportlines really the best or what ?

Gravana Coilovers. Good Quality, Great ride comfort (for coilovers). And amazing customer service from Gravanatuning.com and B&G suspension incase amything ever goes wrong.

Same suspension between the two cars, pulled it all out of the 02 to put in the 98.


For reference this is how the 02 sits now.

started on koni yellows/goldlines... rode well and handled great!

recently upgraded to tein ss coilovers. little softer ride but just as competent and the pillow ball mounts make a world of difference.

i would recommend both! (although I believe the goldlines are no longer being produced or so I've heard)

Yea this is what I'm leaning towards for the upgrade. Just wanna hear what everyone has and their opinons on 'em. Cuz my other option is AGX's & Sportlines.

I have had sportlines with D-specs and it was a fairly harsh ride I thought. So I sold the sportlines and got sprints instead. Not enough of a drop for me though. Road magnets have been another option I have been looking into as well but unsure.

I have had the following

Sprints with stock struts Bouncy don't recomend
H&R sports with stocks, again bouncy but not as bad, still dont recomend
Sportlines with D-specs, Very firm ride but nice handling.
Sprints with D-specs, nice ride, fair handling, decent setup but not as low as I was hoping to have.

u mean stock struts/shocks. pro-kit isn't stock spring. stock springs are a part of stock suspension.

Current-
Front- GC coil-overs 525#, Eclipse Koni Sports
Rear- Blue Coil 5x8 500#, Saab 900 Koni Sports

Used to have-
Front- GC coil-overs 525#, 3rd gen Koni Sports (not enough travel)
Rear- Afco 5x8 300#, Saab 900 Koni Sports (not enough spring)

Eibach Pro Kit with KYB GR2s (best off the shelf)
Eibach Pro Kit with Monroes (best budget)
Eibach Pro Kit with KYB GR2 struts and KYB GasAJust shocks (very strange handling, GasAJusts are too stiff for Eibachs)

Future-
Front- GC coil-overs 550#, Eclipse Koni Sports (just a touch stiffer to complement the direct acting sway bar)
Rear- Eibach 5x6 3/4 500-1000# progressive, Saab 900 Koni Sports (more adjustability)


Then again, none of this matters to you, since its all on a 2nd gen

You beat me to it.

Airlift's Easystreet. Better handling than stock, but no where near as good as Tein SS. The lower you go, the better the ride. All bags filled to the max feels like you have 2x4 for springs, but i ride at 35(front) and 45(rear) and its a nice soft ride.



Re: What are you lowered on ?

yellows and sportlines.

love the ride on full soft, love the handling on full stiff and everything in between.

What springs are the equivalent drop to sportlines out there ?



Re: What are you lowered on ?
Tuesday, August 19, 2008 6:30 PM
i believe those would be the road magnets.
