Right now I am using Eibach Sportline Springs w/ Kyb Agx Shocks.

It lowered my del Sol 1.8" The height still seems to be a little high.

The car handles great thought. I was thinking about going for a lower drop.





I was looking into the H&R race springs. They claim to lower 2.75"F 2.25"R

But I'm not sure if it would be a safe idea to run those springs on these shocks.

Also, I'm not sure that the H&R springs are of better or same quality then the

Eibachs and im also wondering if the performance of these springs are as good as

my current setup. I'm really not sure what I want to do yet. But I think I want to

stay away from coilovers.

Help me put some light on this situation. Good/Bad? Better springs? Anything that

will help me out here.

Thanks,
Drew

i lowered my del sol (97 si) on skunk2 springs and tokico illumina 5 way adj. shocks. it lowered my car about 2.5" all the way around. i LOVED it... the handling was amazing! i live on all backroads and i used to fly through the corners! plus the ride wasn't too bad either! i would def. recommend it! (plus i'm selling EVERYTHING off my car right now b/c i got in an accident so if u want any of my suspension pieces, lemme know.)
i would stay away from coilovers too... everyone i know that has used them ends up with a really, really bumpy ride and not great handling.

 

no one else?

Jeeze.

 

I'm pretty happy with my ground control/agx setup. yes, the ride is stiff but that's to be expected based on the spring rates I have. Handling is awesome.

 

I am currently Running

Progress Springs and Stock SHocks...

The Progress Springs advertise a drop of 2.3 front and rear, but on my EK four door, I cut about a .25 of the bumpstop for both front and rears to achive abotu a 2.5 drop front and rear (no affect on ride quaity :D ) but yet these Springs are identical to Sportlines, I mean I have drivin a car with Sportlines and the ride quality and handling are just like driving my car except that I am lower...Humm???

But I suggest Progress Springs, since you like the ride and handling of Sportlines..

And I would be it would match up nicely to your KYB AGX Shocks...

 

i have tokico illuminas with h&r race springs.....its slammed and i love it....i handles like a champ too ...ill post pictures of it when i get some recent ones!

 

i got ground control coilovers and agx adjustables....the ride is stiff and handles great. i have to put my benen and itr bars on still.....so im hoping for a even better ride

Its not slammed I'll tell ya that much.

But its realistic ride height, and good handling.
