in one of the other threads several people expressed interest in lowering their car.

got a PM from J's Racing (a sponsor on here) for a good price on the Espelir springs.

if we get a group who wants to install these, maybe we can do a tech day and someone can help us do this ? i have no clue how to install them. dont we have to get an alignment afterwards as well?


UPDATE:
Individually = $190 shipped
3+ people= $180 shipped
5+ people= 170 shipped.


In on possible group buy

I highly reccomend the Epelir asd's i love mine. If needed i can help anyone out when istalling these, if enough people get them we can set up a tech day and i can assist everyone. With hand tools it only takes about 2 - 2 1/2 hours to do everything.

 

Yep, once you take apart your suspension, you'll need an alignment.

What's the spring rate on the springs? Also, i'm not interested in springs, unless I have shocks to go with it. If the stock suspension is just lowered on springs, the ride will become rock hard, as the shocks will already be in a bottomed out state.

 

jeremy do you have new shocks or the stock ones? i thought it would be ok to just lower using springs and not coilovers, i could be wrong?

 

It'll work to just use springs, but the shocks won't really be dampening your ride as they should be.

 

Can Js Racing get a good price on Koni Yellows?

Also Tein S-Tech springs are a really good choice as well. ~$200

 

ill check.

the espelirs were 190 shipped

 

Yes you'll need an alignment.

copied the spring rate from another website

spring rate F(5.3kg), R(7.0kg)

Donald, honestly these springs ride is very similar to the stock ride. It did not become harsh at all. I am currently running these springs on stock shocks, but will eventually be relacing them as well with Koni's but that will be a bit down the road.

 

Espelirs > Tein

 

so i would be ok with running just springs for a while, knowing down the line i will probably be installing coilovers in the next year hopefully?
