Lowering an S14

[compression]

This is a daily driver car and I am looking to get rid of (or reduce) the wheel gap.I am not setting it up for track or race use, just street driving. I did some searching and found that the the Tein S-tech springs are well received.I am probably going to change the dampers to Tokico HP's (the blue ones) because they are affordable and I dont need adjustability.I dont have a lot of money to spend on dropping it, about $500-700.Has anyone tried the Eibach pro-kit ?(sportlines would be too low)I am also not looking for the "in 'da weeds" look, just down 2" or so. This is a daily driver and I dont want to get kidney bruising from every bump.Any pictures would be greatly appreciated also.thanks

I had sportlines on my S14 for a while. 2" wasn't enough for me so I went to the 4" drop sprints. Can't recommend the 4" drop springs though as they destroy shocks and struts. Have you looked at the Megan coil-overs yet?

the megan's are a little out of my price range. Looking at Enjuku's site, here is what I could possibly afford:-Eibach pro-kit springs/tokico dampers-S-tech springs/tokico dampers-tein BASIC coilovers

Does anyone have pictures of the lowering springs on a car? I am trying to get an idea of much drop each has?

Go with the Tockico Blues and SPortlines... Sportlines only drop the car 1.7 in the front and 1.4 in the back.

I used to have some tien s-techs and tokicos in my old s14, must say they were a pretty good combo. i had bought them used in japan, good ride quality and i was very happy with the ride hieght and stiffness of the suspension. i also had some eibach sportline and the adjustible tokicos on my old honda, and i must say that combo sucked. eventhough i had the shocks set to the stiffest setting the springs were really soft, and the combo give the car a very bad ride. tien+tokico> eibach+tokico
