Eibach Lowering Spring installed PICS
Wednesday, February 02, 2005 9:01 AM
This past Saturday January 29th, I had Eibach Pro-kit Lowering Springs, and Monore Sensatrack struts put on. I also had to replace the front strut mounts, they were nearly shot for only having 56k on the car. But oh well tell me what you think of the drop.

Before



After




Hope everyone enjoys. I would have my Enkeis and my Falken tires on if it wasn't blasted winter here in MI.

That looks strangely low for the pro-kit

Maybe its just the pics, but god, if prokit is that low I'm gonna flip when I see my sportlines on my car.

Looks good but I would have went lower.... If you're going to be sacrificing ride quality anyway you might as well go all the way!:

sacrificing ride quality? I don't think I did that when I put my konis and prokit on my car, I think it made the ride quality better.

I may be a sucker for red, but that car looks sexy. Love that stock look.

Excellent! its even in my car's color. this gives me the perfect idea of what my ride will look like when i get around to getting the pro kit/koni yellow set up. first i got to sell my other car.

^^ i think Robs said that because sean said he used monroe struts..which to my knowledge is just a stock replacement and lowering a car on stock struts can make the ride suck.. you on the other hand have konis, that are made for lowering.

Sorry for being off subject. Car looks great. i'm gonna get prokit/agx set up once i can save again

well to me it sounded like he was saying the ride quality was coming from being lower which isnt the case really... well kind of, but not really the main problem... its the dampening that is the problem

I never said anything about ride quality. The ride is nice, car sticks to the road like glue. There is alot less body roll. I do have summer set of rims going on soon, but it is winter here and i can't put them on.

The car looks great and the ride height is just right.
It will look different when you put your summer rims on, if they are low profile tires.
It will still look a 1000 times better then stock height tho.

Ohh and the reason or this is, the sidewall on your stock wheels is much bigger
then the gap from your wheel to your fender. When you put on low profile wheels
that difference lessens a bit.

That's why low profile wheels look so messed up on stock height cars, the sidewall
could fit 2+ times into that gap.

Yeah if you don't need to adjust, I think the prokit is the perfect drop.... considering getting those again, but also looking at the tein coilovers if there would be someone who would say how they are....

I love the prokit's, I had them on my old 98 z24. I have the sportlines now which are lower, but they don't ride as well without the proper shock/struts.

Looks alot better slammed. Enjoy the turns.
