Damn that is low. And I have a problem with ground clearence now....

 

Here is mine,


Jamex 1.5" drop

I've got the Eibach Sportlines on it now, but since I have no miles on the car and no motor or tranny, it still sits high,

 

Here is the Formula

Sportline Progressive springs.

Schultzy, very nice ride!
How do you like the sportline springs vs your stock ws6 ones in terms of handling. Did you put in lower control arm relocation brackets?

Zepher, why did you switch from Jamex to Eibach? Were you not happy with the Jamex springs?

Thanks for the replies!

 

I had no problem with the Jamex. I got a deal on the Eibachs, $70 for the set, so I bought them and put them on.
I have a bad habit of swapping parts on my car, it's actually a rather expensive habit that I can't even afford.

I traded the Jamex springs with a friend of mine for his Engine stand that my LT4 is sitting on.

 

Cool,
Now my question to you is:
Which would you rather have...the jamex or the Eibach Sportlines???
This is what I'm deciding on at the momment...

 

It's now sold but!

Well, I haven't driven my car yet with the Eibach's, no motor or tranny in it yet.

TransAm86, your car looks bad ***. I bet you scare a lot of people with those tires you got on there.

 

simply beautiful schultzy



How's the ride on those compared to stock WS6? Your car is making me want to drop mine. 1.5 inch is looking nice.

 

nice looking!!!

 

i can see why it's sold.. suhweet!

 

Thanks man. I like the sportlines a lot. They are a little stiffer than the WS6 and having the car lower has it's obvious benefits for cornering. It cracks me up that you always hear on this board that the pro-kit is for handling and the sportlines are for looks - lmao.

These springs got rid of the excess fender well space without looking 'slammed'. It was just what i was looking for - clean.

When I first put them in the only thing I did was get an alignment. Drove it like that for about a year. This last summer I put in a Spohn adjustable pan hard bar and the lower control arm relocation brackets. Recommend it but it is certainly drivable without. You will lose some traction though due to the change in the lca geometry.

Thanks for the compliment. The ride is 'about' the same as the WS6. The WS6 is stiff and these are a little stiffer. It is always about trade offs though isn't it? I trade a lot for the slot car handling. I have also added the Spohn Torque arm, poly/spher lca's, lca relocation bracket, poly/spher panhard rod. All of this makes a little more noise and a slightly harsher ride but it is well worth it to me.

Me likes the twisties!

Take it easy,

Schultzy, did you get a bump steer kit from baer?

 

.

 

No I did not.

-Schultzy

 

Hey Schultzy, do the tires ever rub under hard cornering? You saw my front tires.

Last week I parked beside a Prelude and it was the same height as mine! Need to go lower.

 

Hey Mike!

I stayed with the 245/50/16 tires. No rubbing.

Do you have enough clearance with that exhaust to lower it?

-Schultzy

 

I have Suspension Techniques springs right now. Lowered 1" front and 0.5" rear. Its got that raked look. Exhaust should be alright but I would have to be more careful on speed bumps.

 

looks badass Schultzy, cant wait to get the Eibachs under my car next week
