Purchasing Eibach Pro-Kit

Should I invest an additional $120 in the "Complete Lowering Kit" offered by Thunder Racing which includes... BMR Weld-in Lower Control Arm Brackets and a BMR Adjustable Panhard, in addition to the springs, or would I be OK with just purchasing the springs themselves? I'm running Bilsteins all around, with all other suspension components being 100% stock.

As always, replies are appreciated.

If I was lowering I would at least get the relocation brackets. Lowering will screw up the angle of the LCAs and could result in wheel hop.

Incidently, nice car.

word around here is that an adjustable panhard bar is not needed with the drop the pro-kit will give. LCA relocation brackets seem to be highly worthwhile tho.

120 dollars extra to do it right is a good deal. I would go with the full lowerring Kit. Better traction and no dog tracking cause the rearend is out of line.
