Recently installed the Eibach ProKit. Very happy with the drop, 1.2 front and 1.0 rear.

Im kinda confused, looking at the spring rates im guessing that i can buy tanabe springs and not have to wory about stock shocks goin out? Since their pretty much the same linear/progressive?.....

No you will still have to worry about it because the springs sit lower the shock is not valved properly will also sit lower than the stock springs.

^not that i know of, but IMO the majority of the coupes that do go with Eibach get the Sportlines. The Pro-kits are mainly seen on sedans.

yes...if it says 500 lb/inch spring rate...that means it takes 500 lbs to compress your spring 1 inch..

Both the Coupe and Sedan shares the same part number and also the same spring rates.
Quote:
The only difference between the two is the drop height due to the weight difference for the coupe and sedan.

I have Neuspeed Sport Springs and I recommend them. They work great and drop the car 1.6" to give a much more aggressive look to the car. Nice and stiff too.
