next mod i'm looking to do is upgrading my suspension. i'm looking at the eibach pro-kit springs. do i need to upgrade my shocks or camber with it as well, or can i just get the springs and that's it? it's a 1.3" drop, right? how do 17"s look with the eibachs? thanks guys!

imho the eibach prokits are great. it lowers the car plenty for me. after you lower it , you have to plan your driving routes better since you will scrape. i even scrape in my own drive way. i actually am thinking of parking on the street so that i do not have to deal with the hassle.
but like i said, they are nice. i suggest you get new shocks too. just because if your stock ones go bad, you'll again have to take it apart.
hope this helps.

hmmm, I have sportlines and a dip in my drive. I went to the spray in bed liner place for trucks. And got some scrap stuff and put it in the dip. Now, I can easily get out. I never scrape. Except my muffler on speed bumps at times.

I've had both sportlines and prokits..i'd go with the prokits you can barely see the difference but the feel is better cuz of the increased spring rate

they are ok i guess. i mean they were the most affordable i could find. i just did not want to use my stock shocks... the gr2s are a notch above stock.

I agree they are Ehh...I'd get some tokico non-adj or Koni non-adj. I don't change my settings - i don't know who would unless you auto-x plus non-adj are much cheaper

if you go to the track the adjustables are good because you can set them full stiff for autocross/road race... and you can set the back stiff and front softer for drag and you might occasionally change them in the street. I change springs and shocks at same time, i have agx and progress sport (1.3") springs and the ride is fine, when there's a big bump in the highway at fast speed its annoying but other than that i have no complaints
