Got Sprints???

I just installed 4th gen Sprint springs yesterday....i got the 4th gen springs cuz i have modified set of 4th gen AGXs already.

my car rides 10 times better than when i had cut Eibachs...my Eibachs have taken sooo much beating, the front springs had almost no tension. they were as soft as my stock springs or worse maybe..i've heard people say Sprints are harsh and all, but OMG...compared to what I had before, this thing rides almost like stock!

car sits just a bit higher than when i had the cut Eibachs, but i'm sure it'll be just as low as before once the springs settles. it actually lowers just as much as TEIN springs for the 5th gens(I know this because i've seen both TEIN and SPRINT drops).

btw i didn't have to cut one coil in the rear to make the ride look 'right' like 4th gen people do. i guess that's a little different between 4th gens and 5th gens.

But I agree - better than cut springs.
