Looking to run the eibach sportline springs 1.6 front 2.0 back has anyone have them? Please post pics if you do, and how you like them. Also looking at the H&R supersport 1.7 front 1.9 back let me know what you have and how you like them. And pics always help, thanks

 

I had the sportline springs. Loved them. Drops the rear of the car just right.

 

Looks good

 

I don't like that nose up look.

 

I have sportlines. Love them. I don't have any nose-up look. I prefer the car to have either a 'flat' stance or slightly leaning forward. Mine is quite flat.

 

I know you believe that, but even with no bodies in it, it will give the illusion of being nose up just by the fender wells. Put bodies in it or items in the trunk or just forward motion and you're nose up.

 

I'm sorry man, but I think I know my own car a little better than you do. First of all, ANY car will lean backwards on acceleration. The Sportlines are quite stiff and they barely settle at all when someone sits in the car. Furthermore, since the seats are roughly in the center of the car, it's going to settle pretty equally front/rear, or maybe even a bit further forward since the front of the car is heavier than the rear of the car.

Actually, I just re-read your post. And it doesn't make any sense. You just said two completely contradictory things. You first said, with nobody in the car, it'll be nose up. And then you said, with stuff in the car, it'll be nose up.

Here's a picture of the car with nobody in it (it is also not in motion FYI).

Nope, still leaning forward!

 

Looks **** good to me!! Sits very level

 

What all suspension mods do you have? I want my car to sit like that, is that just the springs or do you have a coilover kit?

 

I have the springs, some steeda shocks/struts, lower control arms, bmr control arm relocation brackets, and an adjustable panhard brace. However the springs are going to be the only thing to affect how the car just sits.. The other stuff affects how it handles when you drive it

 

What I said was, even with nobody in the car the fender wells will give the appearance of nose up and that picture you posted, looks nose up. Sorry bro it does.

 

Def see what 11ShelbyGT500 is talking about. Optical illusion because of the fenders, almost makes the front wheels look larger too.

 

My ONLY concern would be the roll center and the steering geometry being out of spec once you drop the car more than 1.5" in the front.

I know STEEDA has a ton of aftermarket stuff to fix this, but I didn't see any of it posted in anyone's sig.

X5 ball joints? A-Arm relocation? Caster/Camber plates? Toe adjustment?

If you just do this for looks, it will still wear out ball joints and such prematurely, but if you do this and go track the car, I'm afraid it would get a little hairy at speed.

Any input?

 

ov3n---- wow your car is just great lol
