No price yet, but I think it's a .6" drop.

damn....end of the yr!? i guess i have to wait longer....i was really anticipating the swift springs but they seem to be a more aggressive of a drop than we had originally anticipated. I want <1" all around....

Yeah I am getting frustrated and about to just order TEIN springs.

tbonesteak 08-25-2010 06:30 PM

hahaha noooo u will end up selling the Teins. I've had some in the past. Never again.

tjlazer 08-25-2010 06:31 PM

well I'm kinda pissed as I just installed my S-Tune kit and it's sitting .5" higher in the front. Was gonna put RS*R on them but I am getting impatient, especially now!

OK Japan Parts responded. $391 for the TI 2000 Down Springs and $140 or shipping. (It's like $60 cheaper for the normal ones) I'm gonna do it!

where as eibach has been chip free for about 5yrs now.
tein's are okay too but check their spring rates. it seems like their engineers just
puts together some assortment of springs as a kit and sells it for a car.

not sure if i got a bad batch but tanabe does not qualify in my
future to-buy department.

wow... i wanted to get the tanabe gf210 springs... this makes me rethink some things..

tbonesteak 08-26-2010 11:22 PM

tein sux too. swift, neuspeed, h&r are some of the highest quality springs. Eibach has good quality but they suck as a spring.

Here is a peak on how they look!

This is most likely what I would get though just based on the fact that it is a linear spring.

Does anyone know if the H&R's are progressive or linear?

Post pics when installed. I'd like to get these but i'll wait till they get here

tbonesteak 09-03-2010 10:27 PM

i don't think that looks stock at all. It def looks lowered. I'm loving this setup so far.
