Default Tc goes Down Tonite... Eibach Pro kit drop

Well, decided to keep the springs. Not looking forward to buying new shocks though. putting on the pro kit tonite. i'll have pics (if anyone can host them for me, if you want to see before and after.

Also got some upgraded new rotors and ceramic "quiet stop" pads.

alignment tomorrow.

so far so good. springs rotors and pads took a total of little less than 3 hours. Drove a little bit on them, nothing dangerous. Tested out a launch once...felt GOOD... can't wait for alignment tomorrow morning (rite around block from my house. i'm just gonna walk home and take a nap. THe owner thinks i'm a business friend of his' brother-in-law [cuz i told him that] so i hope to get a good deal on it)

the springs seem to ride a smooth as stock, once they settle a bit more that may change. but for now, the ride quality is nice. They turn in pretty nicely. I like em. ANd would recommend them. after all, you can't beat a 1,000,000 mile warranty.

Next up is K&N drop in! .....i'm serious.

Cool, can't wait to see the pics. Did they drop 1.2" all-around or more?

took some pics..will email them to clockwerk soon as i find my usb cable.

The springs are spec'd as a 1.4" drop front and rear, but Eibach measures differently (i forget how) than other companies so it may be a little more than than. Plus, i Know they haven't fully settled yet, so i probably have a little more drop to go.

But they ride smooth and quiet, bumps are no big deal (save for those notorious philly potholes), and launches are great! NO/little WHeel hop!

They're progressive springs so at slow speeds they are still very much like stock, but at higher speeds and force you can feel the stiffness. Tight!

Falling in love with my tc again. Big Thanks to Rich at Fuzion Auto (www.fuzionauto.com) in Havertown and Joe from Joe's Automotive in Havertown.
