Advice on lowering my car..
i've been recently thinking about dropping my car. I dont know how low i want to go but it is either the eibach pro kit or the eibach sport kit. I have also read that getting new shocks would be a good idea.. I see the eibach has the pro system which comes with the springs and the dampers. Is this all i need? or do i need something else. And if not the eibach dampers. what would you recommend? please help.

the pro system is not going to be released.
it's suggested to go with the koni shocks; or you can go with the tanabe sustec coilover kit..do a search you'll find what you need.

so your saying not to buy the eibach dampers? theyre not as good as the koni? i dont like to do things the cheap way.. id rather pay a lil more and not have any problems.. and i also dont want to create damage that can be preventeed.

i personally would go with a set of coilovers. there are a set of tanabes for sale if the black market for 650 I believe. They are closest to oem ride comfort and are ride height adjustable.

to make it more difficult for you, I just advice eibach springs...no shocks.
I've had eibach springs...still comfortable and sporty. I later on upgraded with koni shocks (to replace the stock honda shocks). The koni shocks are adjustable in hardness... but do you want the shocks to be hard?? In dayly use you put the shocks near the softest setting... just because it's hard enough to be sporty and then there really hardly any difference with the stock shocks.
From my experience I really advice just eibach springs, no need to do more. I've had them for 4 years and loved them.
