springs

[z32Odoom]

So i'm lookin at gettin new springs,

the car has tokico blue shocks since i bought it, so i'm just gonna leave those alone.

i'm torn between the tien h/s tech, and eibach pro's

Just lookin for some input from people on ride quality handling and stance, i'm not really lookin to slam it, i already scrape all over the place on stock ride height.

just lookin to get a little tire tuck and a little better performance without breaking a hip everytime i hit a bump.

I just wanted to get some real opinions before i bought anything. so lets hear em.

S tech for comfort, H tech for drop.
The Eibachs put our car at pretty much where you are describing.

How long have the Tokicos been used? If they've been on there for more than a year, you may as well budget shocks with the springs, since dropping them further after a year of stock height will more often than not blow the seals.

i just put together megan springs and tockico blues, im very happy with it. also got adjustable suspension pieces as well, but for the price i'm happy, and the tockico blues are great they are stiff, but not bouncy. im gonna throw up a post with how to do it all and how it turned out this week if your interested.

i am doing the same to my coupe. how does it sit? is the drop nice? tucking wheel or tire? lol. i havent put mine on yet and i have been itching to see how it will look.

sorry not trying to thread jack from the op.
well ill post a pic up soon. its alot lower. ride is good its not bouncy or anything like that. ill post up that pic this afternoon but its a serious 2" drop. at first the wheels were at -3.3 camber so they looked super tucked, but now at -1.5 all around they aren't to bad. another set would still fill it out nicer but no complaints at all. overall i am very happy with it. i just finished the job up on Tuesday so its still gonna settle up to another 1/4".

Hmm. Ya i might just go kyb g2 and eibachs. The tokicos are a couple years old. They still look way fresh though. They probably only have 20k on them. Idk i just helped my buddy do a rear coilover swap onto his 81 810. Got me in the mood for springs.

i like the megan springs. but i dont know if you want slamburglar status. haha. good ride on the eibachs though.just watch for bumps. they tend to suprise you with random super stiffness and broken back syndrom. haha.

The tokicos are a couple years old.

Then I would replace them if they have been installed on the car for that long. That and 20K miles is definitely grounds to budget in replacement shocks.
