As if there isn't enough to worry about in the MOD realm for the stang....... I found myself looking at something I already have installed: springs

<humor me>


I have the Saleen suspension kit and really like it.

BUT - lately I have been looking at some pics of my old black 05 - and I had the Eibach prokit on that. And if there is one thing that I loved about that car (among many), that was the stance. And it has been brought back by reviewing old pics.

Now I find myself with the constant thought in my head that goes:

'Yeah the 06 looks great right now.... but just THINK of it crouched down just a bit lower............'

I am remembering the ride quality of the Eibachs and trying to weigh that against some others like the Steeda springs or the Roush or H&Rs. So if anyone running those springs wants to chime in please do so

[I truly think the thing with the Saleen's is that the Saleen mustangs come STOCK - or primarily used to - with 20 inch wheels and the kit is taking that into account.]

 

Why not go with the Eibach's again but get D-Specs as well? I kept my Eibach's and when I am done buying other toys, I plan on getting some D-Specs and then putting those with the Eibach's back in.

 

Recently I had thought of THAT too

only problem is, then I go from spending approx $230 total to what - 700 or 800 total.

I just put a new clutch in a few months back and I am trying to put some money to the side for a few things coming up (brake upgrades and eventually I am going to have to start plannin for new rear tires, etc...) so if I DID do something about the stance/ride height, I have to keep it low on the $$ output scale

I HAVE considered doing the Dspecs though - maybe I will table that for next year

 

Exactly my way of thinking!

Although I'm very satisfied on the ride quality of the Steeda Ultralites and stock dampeners, I have a new set of Eibach Pros and D-specs in the garage ready to go! ... whenever I get my car back that is.

 

He's already running the Saleen/Race-Craft dampers, would the Tokicos be worth the extra money?

 

I ran the FRPP handling kit(Eibach's) on my 06'GT,the drop was great.I'm running the Steeda Sport springs and wish I had the Eibach's for the extra 3/4 inch of drop.This is a upgrade suspension mod I have in mind down the road for sure.I thought I was the only one who wants it lower.

 

Let me be the party pooper........ Leave it as is, it looks great right now and probably handles out of this world.

 

Hey man - what do you know Tom?

Which is your stang again?.....


Oh..... THAT one?............





Well you know how it goes man - sometimes I think I should steal John's (05GT OCD) online handle as I get a thought in my head about something for the car and run with it

Gawd, talk about obsessed....

Thanks man - you know I value your input
(shall we reference the 'Corsas with offroad? It will be LOUD' conversation? LOL)

 

I know what you mean when you say obsessed......

 

Steeda Ultralites and D-Specs for me. You get the stance and the ride.

 

Eibachs with stock is ok. Steeda Ultralites with Tokico is much better. I actually am running Steeda Comps with stock shocks and struts and call me crazy, but I love it! With my alignment there is NO oversteer. I can drift the back out at will with throttle. That's why I bought the car. I like to have fun, even if nobody will ride shotgun due to the ride!
