23429, question about suspension setup????? Posted by joshky9, Apr-10-04 04:12 AM
suppose i get eiback sportlines, can i use those with shock struts for a while? Also, what what kind of camber adjustment am i going to need? Also is there any write up about rolling or cutting rear wheel wells to stop rubbing or will i even need to cut wheel well with stock rims or when i get get 17's. Any imput would be greatly appriciated.
Are eiback sportlines the best or are those cheap ebay dropzone and other random springs just the same?

you can use stock shocks with eibachs but do it right the first time and get some aftermarket ones imo. as far as camber, look into doing the 15 dollar camber mod from the main page. and as far as i know, you dont need to do any modifications to the wheelwells to fit 17's. eibach are much better than ebay or random springs. you can get them on www.adventon.com for under 200 bucks.

thanx for the reply. Another question though, is it possible to get a suspension setup for around 400 bucks including lowering springs and shocks. I would also like to get the eibach sportlines. Im just seing all these shocks for tons of money, do i need adjustables? or does that even matter to much? Thx

Sorry one more thing, would be it better to get a better camber kit with the eibach sportlines rather than shocks, i was reading that the 15 dollar mod wont do it + am i going to have to adjust the front as well the sportline says its a 1.6 drop.

the only way to get a suspension setup for 400 max and have eibach springs is if you were to buy some kyb gr2 shocks which are like 60 bucks a piece. i have heard they are basically only a replacement of the stockers. just remember, you get what you pay for.

hey thx for the info. I think ill prolly go stock struts for a lil bit untill i get the money for some shocks. How are tokico hp shocks? Or should you always go with the illumina's thx.

will illuminas are adjustable and supposed to be a lot better than the hp's but there is nothing wrong with the hp's.
