Does anyone have any opinions of the ride quality between these two applications. They will be going onto a 1998 Accord V6 Sedan. I have noticed the the Pro kits tend to leave the car sitting a bit higher in the front. I like the idea of the adjustability of coilovers, but have never had any experience with them.
Good/Bad/Same?? Any opinions and feedback would be appreciated.

 

With GC you can choose your spring rates (they use Eibach springs), or just go with what they recommend for comfort.
The Eiback Prokits ride great. If you can find out what the Prokit spring rates are, you can get the same rates on GCs. These springs are relatively soft though, and won't do much for handling, other than lowering your car's center of gravity.

 

Actually, since the ProKit is a progressive spring and all GC Eibach applications are linear, you can't duplicate the mix of sport and comfort. With linear rate springs (e.g., GCs), you have to chose what you are looking for, while a progressive transitions from near stock rates to 200% of stock rates, for instance.

As for handling, while progressive (like OEM springs), the rates are usually about 150-200% of the stock rates (depending on the application). The question is what are you looking for - pure performance, cruising, or a mix? (4door has owned both though, IIRC - so his insight is valuable... if slightly inaccurate )

 

Let me ask another question than...if I get a set of Koni's to go with the Pro Kit, which ones do you recommend? Do they have any adjustability as to ride height, ie:, different perch settings?
I am looking for the best of both worlds here, better handling and good ride quality. My only fear about the Pro-Kit is that the car will have the rear end squatting lower than the front. If I gain some adjustability with the Koni's than I could level it out.
Thanks

 

I have Koni Yellows. They are the "regular" Koni yellows with 3 height perches. The Neuspeed Koni Yellows have 5.

 

If your gona get the Koni Yellow then you should just get the Ground Control and leave it on the Regular Perch. But if you think about it the setup is gona cost you around $850 for Koni Yellow and Ground Control. So why dont you just go get Apexi WS Pure Coilover for the same price. You will like it better..
