Give tirerack a call and get them ordered. If you have any issues let me know.

Re: Eibach Multi-Pro R2 Coilovers
Car was looking good on Mid-Ohio today. Couldn't tell if it was Steve or Tony driving the couple of sessions I saw it out there. Steve had a breif rundown of the difference he felt. Should have a nice review after tomorrow.
P.S. Great prizes you guys (Eibach) gave away at the banquet!

Re: Eibach Multi-Pro R2 Coilovers
I can't say enough great things about this suspension. We gave it some heavy abuse on track this weekend between a few of us.
By far my favorite part is how damn comfortable the car is to drive to/from the track. I did roughly 1200 miles in the past few days and it was mindblowing to drive something that has a comfort level of stock while using 650/750lb springs. This is an incredible unit you guys have made.

Re: Eibach Multi-Pro R2 Coilovers
Looks like a great setup. Would be many more sold if you could pick spring rates, imho. Purchasing the setup and then buying springs of choice only bumps the price up and closer to the likings of JRZ RS's which can be had for 3k ish. JRZ also do not have external res which is plus for many classes of racing.

Re: Eibach Multi-Pro R2 Coilovers
Removed my Koni/GC setup last night in preparation for the Eibach set to arrive.
Where exactly do you suggest routing the lines for the external resi's into the engine bay? It's tough to see from the pics posted.. Looks like maybe just inside the fender well?

Re: Eibach Multi-Pro R2 Coilovers
The passenger side will make sense. For the drivers side we popped out the washer fluid tank, ran the Eibach beer can through and then put the tank back in place and had the line tucked in through that area. Never had to drill any holes. If you PM me I could email you better pictures, I took a few with my phone when installing.

I'm sure it will make more sense once I get these badboys in there.

Re: Eibach Multi-Pro R2 Coilovers
To add to Steve's comment, we used a little bit of wireloom on the bare metal to prevent any chaffing of the line.
It took awhile to route the driver side, but it looks awesome and is easily adjustable once in place.

Re: Eibach Multi-Pro R2 Coilovers
Arg!
Just opened up the box to find one of the coilovers leaking badly.
The adjuster cap on the top punched through the box. UPS dude must have flung it onto my porch. DAMNIT.
Hopefully you guys have that last kit instock. I'm going to be needing the front damper ASAP. Was hoping to use these for a track day next weekend.

Re: Eibach Multi-Pro R2 Coilovers
I highly doubt that Tire Rack would have these in stock. I am sure once they have the order placed then they contact Eibach and then place the order through them.
I am sure Eibach will take care of your shipment damage. That is a big downer to recieve your new product and it be damaged. Best of luck with the issue.
