Here's a quick pic of my car freshly dropped on Eibach Pro Kit springs. Very happy with the results.

lol i see X

ryanastyG4 · July 28th, 2010, 11:45 PM

Fail x 3. Lol.

Good job on lowering though.

DustinH · July 29th, 2010, 12:16 AM

The zip file works. Looks good!

Englehardt21 · July 29th, 2010, 08:32 AM

Haha, yeah sorry for the previous 2x pic fails....The pic was off my iPhone so I couldn't get the file to upload right. The zip file seemed to work...Thanks Dustin!

I'll try to get better pics with my DSLR later on today.

Just a quick ?.......About how long did it take for your springs to settle?

NitroGlisson · July 29th, 2010, 09:49 AM

I put on the Pro Kit too....not sure about how long to settle though...I guess mine still are...plan on getting the alignment while my car is repaired. Looks good and you are going to love the new handling characteristics.

Englehardt21 · July 29th, 2010, 10:53 AM

Yeah the handling is insane with the springs on....much better!! Also, I needed an alignment bad anyways so I guess I killed 2 birds with 1 stone.

The ride seems to be better today....It was really bouncy when I first got the car back, but I gather it'll smooth out a little more when the springs settle a bit. Its not that bad though, I thought it would've been an even rougher ride.

Overall I'm very happy with the performance.

randman · July 29th, 2010, 11:41 AM

progress rear sway bar next man . inexpensive mod + easy install = bigger grin on your face in the turns!

Englehardt21 · July 29th, 2010, 12:39 PM

I was thinking about that......I was looking at the Eibach kit too, but I didn't know if it was better to stick with the same brand.

So Progress rear sway bar, eh? I think I may have to look into that, lol.

The rear sway bar install 15 minutes....the front is a bitch though...took me most of a day. You have to partially drop the frame under the motor...not fun.

Freeker · July 29th, 2010, 12:54 PM

my pro kit settled after about a week

randman · July 29th, 2010, 01:08 PM

I think i paid 136 shipped for the sway bar from RRE . Very noticablle feel and waaay better than stock.

ryanastyG4 · July 29th, 2010, 03:13 PM

Couple weeks to settle in (depending on driving habits/roads/springs you got) dont align until theyve settled either. Unless you wanna dish out the extra cash for another alignment.

TemplarRadix08GT · July 30th, 2010, 12:18 PM

I think that's the only mod I don't want to do. I heard cusco makes some sick shocks for our cars, but 1500 isn't an option. They're electric drop or some shit, from vividracing.com
Engle went am I gunna see that gs?

Englehardt21 · July 30th, 2010, 01:40 PM

Well, there's one pic in a zip file towards the top of the thread.....I plan on getting a few nice photos tomorrow being that its gonna be a nice day (plus I'll actually have the time, lol). Plus I dont have any good pics of if since I lowered it this week. We'll get a few up there......

We need to find some more NEPA people! Maybe get a meet going?

Freeker · July 30th, 2010, 04:32 PM

Get a better pic....

Englehardt21 · July 30th, 2010, 04:42 PM

Tryin to.......But I've been slammed at work and unfortunately time was not on my side, haha. I'm hoping to get a few pics tomorrow, hopefully something better than the thumbnail zipfile pic or the red x's

Freeker · July 30th, 2010, 04:44 PM

lol i just posted the zipfile pic... ill see if i can biggerize it

Freeker · July 30th, 2010, 04:47 PM

nope couldn't... well i could but it was going to involve too much of my being lazy time...

Englehardt21 · July 30th, 2010, 04:57 PM

lol that'll happen bro.....I'm at about that point right now

Daxenth · July 30th, 2010, 05:22 PM

I wish i could lower mine. but id be scraping like no other where i live.. Plus i got leds on the bottom so those would be gone as well lol

TemplarRadix08GT · July 31st, 2010, 11:26 PM

I think that meet would consist of u me and.. Like twillson if he still lived in pa and maybe that gu from lansdale? Only couple people I met in person who owned 4gs were douchebags who bought a cool car. Lol this one time I had this dude roll up next to me rolled down his window and went nice ride.. Same exact car lmfao. He had some vinyls and sun sound package but kapalana black gt. Like 06-07 or so bc was too early in the year to look that worn.

Ya get the occasional nod or woo out the window but that's it!
I wonder if the .com site has some nepa ppl. WTF already sucks here enough we need something to look forward too!
Can always upload the picture to ur account here. Just needs to be jpg. Or email em to me and I'll post em. Tripz@comcast.net
