Eibach Sportlines??

[allhailmj23]

Hey guys, I'm currently dropped on H&Rs and Tokico Blue struts, but I want to drop the front lower to even it with the wheel gap in the back. The H&Rs drop the car 1.5 inches for sure, but on the 3geez wiki page and a search on this board, it says that the Eibachs drop the car 1.5+ inches. I just want to know for sure that they are shorter than the H&Rs and will make the car's stance look more appropriate. Thanks

Hopfully this pic gives you guys an idea of my issues with the height in the front compared to the back.

I don't think it will be much different. Also you car looks mint dude, I love it! I think white hatches are my favorite.

Thanks RAZR, never thought about doing that. Custom fab work isn't really my thing, but it seems very doable. And I kinda thought that was the case Legend Master, and thanks, it's a real nice car. I might still put in the Eibachs in the front to see how the stiffer spring rates match up with the H&R rears.

allhailmj23 so this has notting to do with this post. But I got some shots of you ride last weekend at the meet that was up the street from my house lol.

[allhailmj23]

Oh shoot nice!! I left the marina for a little bit for lunch at A&W and I saw a green sedan with a JDM duckbill spoiler in a driveway and wondered why it wasn't at the meet. I believe that was frantik's old ride? I love that car! If possible, can you PM me pics?

^^^im sure its frantik's old ride too... we are the only ones in the bay area with JDM duckbills

[obd0driver]

Didn't some company make drop forks for hondas.

if you are worried about fender gap the sportlines do even out the gap and also ride nice. my old 3gee had sportlines (the green one with the ducktail)

[allhailmj23]

Thanks Frantik!! That's exactly what I wanted to hear. Looks like the Sportlines are going in the front ASAP.

[allhailmj23]

So I finally got the Eibach Sportlines in on the front end along with a strut bar. Although stiffer springs than the old H&Rs up front, they ride much nicer and completely changed the handling characteristics. The Sportlines rebound over bumps in a much more controlled manner, increased steering response, and made the steering a bit heavier in a good way. The only thing I can ding it for is that it bumps steers just a bit more. And of course, it did drop the front a good bit. Pictures will follow soon!
