this is what im planning on getting, koni yellows front/back, all new polyurethane bushings for everything, cant chose betweens eibach prokit or eibach sportline kit, which one should i get? prokit=Front Drop: 1.0 in, sportline= Front Drop: 1.5 in
Rear Drop: 1.0 in Rear Drop: 1.4 in
so what would be better? and if i lower it that much will i need a camber kit? if so what one? :confused:

what about wheels? i want lighter wheels, i plan on getting nitto tires :D
 
Don't get sportlines.

I'd rather see you go with H&R OE's over any of the Eibach offerings, and I'm a Prokit owner.
Why on earth do people suggest Sportlines? They're an injustice to car enthusiasts.

If too severe a drop that can potentially decrease handling and spring rates much too low for said drop (actually LOWER rates than STOCK SPRINGS) are your thing, then go nuts.

I know.:confused: It's like...WTF

Because some people like crappy handling and cracked front bumpers because it looks cool to have a slammed car. :toobad:
 
I have a 90 with AGX struts, and Eibach prokit. It rides pretty good, and handles very well.

I also have a full polyurathane suspension in all bushings, and I have an adjustable rear swaybar. I think my car handles really well.

I had a 97 240sx with eibach sportlines and it sucked. It was such a harsh ride. I think that the only reason it still handled well was because it was a 240sx, it had nice struts, and nice rims/tires.

Ive had the best experience with H&R springs. I have no regrets ever with any of these springs. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking to buy new springs.
 
so h&r's? but the koni yellows good?

The Koni Sports (yellows) are great. And I think the H&R OE springs would serve you well. They are reported to have a nice stiff spring rate and drop 1". I know it might be aesthetically pleasing to go 1.5 inches, but I just feel the OE's make a really nice setup.
There are other suitable options, I'm sure.

Ground controls though would solve this problem, giving you height adjustability and custom springs rates, but I'm not sure how much money you want to spend.
 
i dont want my car slamed to the ground for like a sow car i think it look ok, but i just want my car to be a little lower not like scraping the ground low, im just looking for something to make my ride a little better
