ive searched and searched. for the people that use these springs, all i can find is "its sits a lil low in the front"
how low?
does anyone have measurements of before and after?
ive done some weight reduction to the car and the stock IROC springs are to stiff for the car now. they worked great before i took 125# out, but its a 4x4 at the moment.
dont know if i should put the drag launch springs in or use v6 springs.

thanks!

um....i think the drag launch springs have different spring rates between the left and right sides, for hard launches. I dont think they are what youre looking for. So are you looking for softer springs?

you might want to look for some RS springs or something.

yes. looking for softer springs to set the front back down.
the rear springs are different, but both front springs are the same part# and spring rate.

put the eibachs in.
RAISED the car an 1 1/4 over iroc springs
CUT 1/2 coil NOTHING.... same height
CUT 1/2 coil more

2 frikken inches lower now! holy moly, a lil too low, but it looks great.

hopefully someone can use this info and learn from it. i made a mistake in my case.

not possible....if you cut half a coil it will drop regardless unless you put them in wrong. less spring=lower anyway you look at it. they might not have settled down to their ride height but they will drop. and i know people who have taken 2 coils off and their cars still sit high, just depends on the weight in the front of the car.
