Sorry, don't have search function.

This will be my first time doing suspension mods. Looking for a modest drop to go along with my 19's.

I have read through the MaxMods page, at first I also included the H&R's but from the pic provided, it looks like it sags in the rear.

My question is whether either of the 2 above sags over time in the rear and any comments from people who have either of them.

I'll be using Tokico Illuminas.

Thanks.

i say go for the h-techs. I have h-tech+ illumina combo i just havent installed them yet. If you decide to go this route let me know how it is since im not going to do it till next month.

The only real difference between the two are the Eibachs will be stiffer but better handling than the H Tech. They both drop about the same. Also H&Rs only look slightly saggy on 5-speeds, automatics are perfectly even.

H-Techs are supposedly a really even drop for a 5spd tranny. I will probably end up going with that. I don't know what struts though.

well since you are gonna be riding on 19's I would say go with the H-Tech. You will be running tires at higher pressure that stock tires and even 18s if you get the correct size tire 235/35/19. That assuming you are getting also the correct wheel size.

But any way you will have less rubber from the wheels to take some of the street imperfections, so a softer spring will be a good idea, so your ride doesn't feel uncomfortable. Good choice pairing them with the illuminas, they are very nice and rice smooth.
Also the H techs don't sag on the rear, even with 100lbs of system, and a full tank of gas. The drop is even on a 5spd max, and the springs are made out of very good quality.

Thanks for all the comments so far. Looks like the Teins with the Illuminas are a nice setup. I think I'm set with this unless anyone else has comments?
