well as everybody was having fun at the end of the year meet today, i was working hard on my car as i hit a deer,

the car is now back to normal

very confused on what lowering springs to go with...as i am going to be using stock struts.....


any advice would be very, very helpful...

megan racing? eibach pros? tanabi? tein? ksport?

 

Glad to hear that things are getting back to normal.

As far as lowering, are you looking for strut/spring set-up or coilovers?

I would go coilover. I've had eibachs on 4th gen (too bouncy for my taste - on tokicos) & most recently s-techs (on kyb gr2's). Going for JIC (or worst case scenario BC coilovers) for spring 2012.

 

Pics?

 

will post pics tomorrow once im on my laptop after work...

and i was thinking about throwing a set of stechs on my struts...

i have aftermarket KYB non-adjustable struts all around i put on about 2 years ago as my stock struts were sagging...

do you think a set of stechs on non adjustable KYB struts arent gonna cut the standards that i am looking for?

i am looking for a 3 finger gap between wheel and well, and still containing some good not so bouncy ride..

 

KYB GR2s and a mild drop of H&Rs or PRogress or Eibach 1.3 -1.5" drop Fronts.

Stechs will NOT hold up using KYB GR2s

 

so do you think ill be safe with a set of progress springs(very mild drop of 1.6-1.7 inch) will hold up pretty well on my kyb struts compared to stechs 2.3 drop?

 

from my understanding, megan racing, eibachs, progress, and HR have about all the same drop if not the same spring just painted differently and stamped different logos.

 

i got H&Rs and they good. I hrd nothing but good things for eibach and progress.

Stechs is a mixed bag. AND u will want to pair these springs with Illuminas.

 

The Progress springs will be fine on your GR2's.
S-Techs are junk on a 4th gen. No suspension, just looks.

Do not throw lowering springs on stock struts.

 

+1

Itll only be a matter of time after you do so before youll need new struts.

 

Cut springs, simple, cheap and effective one flaw there not safe

 

Agreed had Eibachs they were great, but here good reviews from all now on Coilovers but if go back to springs I would go Progress this time around ....GL....

 

Best statement so far.
