Default Pics of EK Hatches on Eibach Pro's Request *plz* - Also a couple questions

For those running the Eibach Pros, how do you like the ride quality? Is the drop enough for you or do you regret not going with something a little lower?

"ride quality" doens't bring enough "TECHNICAL" points to make it in this forum. sounds like a apperance question to me.

I like my hatch on eibachs. Comfort is good, drop is sufficient. I think it is low enough to not give me any trouble with speed-bumps, curbs and the like.

I presume you are talking to me? That is the EIBACH PRO-Kit with a 35 mm drop front and back.

I have some additional pics for you

EJ9 Hatchback (D-Series) on Eibach-ProKit:


And again (different EJ9 Hatch):

I have pros on my ej1 2dr 95 ex. I love the ride quality. I olny dropped it an inch and a quarter in the back and an inch and a half in the front. I love the ride of my car. Not bumpy or slammed but you can definatly tell a difference in the handling of the car. I changed to these from junk2 coilovers and couldn't be happier.

HT comes through once again! Thanks a lot guys. PS - if that's your yellow or silver hatches, they looks fantastic. A model for me to work towards!

Mickey, the silver one is my baby. the yellow ctr-look hatch belongs to a friend of mine (alex) and the other yellow hatch used to belong to another friend of mine who bought an EE8 instead.

I have the pro-kit on my 95 civic Sedan ans when I got them done they said the car dropped about 2" front an back but dont know cause I didnt measure, plus I like the ride comfort its pretty smooth, they are still on stock shocks that i will replace to. A pic can be seen in the garage https://honda-tech.com/gara...=3447 also the pic needs to be updated cause Ive done some changes.

If you want a slammed h-t ride, don't get 'em.

If you want a small drop and good handling/ride, they're good.

If you track your car seriously, they're too soft by a long shot.

I have a EK Coupe with the Pro-Kit(I know its not a hatch).

They are mated to KYB AGXs. The springs dropped the car about 1.75 inches after it settled which barely covers the top of the wheel, i like it. They have not appeared to sag after 2 years of driving. The are very comfortable great for city driving and highway especially with the KYBs. I have autox with these before and i felt pretty good going into the turns.

Oh that's plain silver nh583m (new vogue silver metallic)
