Project X

Anyone have this setup and have any pics? Are there other lowering springs that will lower the tl about an inch?


Thx

Curious to see how this pans out, because I'm planning to put the Eibach pro-kits on my stock '06 suspension this Spring.

it is a moderate drop, but i think it is appropriate and doesn't put too much unwanted tension on OEM shocks.

and on new wheels



after everything is said and done, i like the drop...but i want more. so i'll be selling my eibach pro kit springs and OEM shocks together or seperatly pretty soon. be on the lookout in the black market.

I was hoping to catch another pic with your new rims! Looks great and "icey"

Thats not much of a drop at all! I had to look twice to notice it!
I have Tien S type springs on stock shocks. about a 1.5" drop i think:

what other springs give a less aggressive drop? tein h-tech? how much do the eibach pro kits go for? how is the install?

you guys need coilovers

Not to bash on anybody, but save up for coilovers . The pro-kits are: comfortable, stock like ride, with a better feel. (since it eliminates some of that body roll.) But the drop isn't much at all. I had them on my Accord with Koni yellow shocks & within a month's worth of time, I switched out to Ground Control coilover sleeves. Once you're lowered, you are gonna wanna go lower just my .

h&r sport is a nice drop too.....but like mentioned save for a full coilover...you cant go wrong

SSM4DR: I would have bought coilovers for it at first but i didnt think i was going to do much to the TL but i got the bug. i think alot of people are not trying to go as "hard core" and only want a slight drop.

I hear ya . I'm not hardcore with dropping it either, 1Finger F/R is good enough for me. Especially with these cracked up roads here in MN due to the snow. Peeps in Cali are hardcore with drops, they kept telling me to slam my old car (02 AV6 coupe) lol. But remember that Coliovers are adjustable both up & down plus some has adjustable damping rebound. Which helps when you wanna run aggressive wheels but wanna avoid slight rubbing.

sharksbreath looks like a bigger drop than urs, comptech lol

ditto.. i not trying to go crazy with my tl and just set it apart from the many others on the road.. pro kit drop with aspec kit will give an appearance of a drop that im looking. esp since this is my daily driver and i want it to be practical.

^eibachs would lower a decent amount and still be comfortable.. but comparing 19s to stock 17s might be a big difference =\

can anyone add some more pictures of eibach prokits on 3G TL? especially with an ASPEC kit.

thanks

Here you go:

djflex167

so you are saying coilovers aren't comfortable? only sport springs on stock shocks? i would like to know since i've never lower my car. i'm debating whether a spec suspension or coilovers?

coilovers give you the option to change dampening.
So if you're riding to harsh, you can make some changes to soften the ride.

and Vice versa, lets say you have it set at a comfort level and a track day comes up, or a buddy invites you to run some twisties, you have the ability to dampen the coils
