Espelir springs are from Mackin Industries who distribute Volk and and etc. They are a 1.3in drop. I've never heard of them being associated with Eibach.
Because one is JDM and the other is USDM how does that make them the same?? Hear say doesn't count for much.

do u autocross? how do u drive your car? I have had eibach on my last car without shocks and yes they will last without shocks yet how I drove my car when I drove my friends same car with kyb shocks/struts it was a MUCH stiffer ride. I autocross therefore when I get espelir springs I WILL be getting konig yellows or something of the sort.. In the end, its ALL HOW YOU DRIVE YOUR CAR. you have a nice car, it looks like you take car of it when it comes to the suspension, being its lower than what i'm going to do to mine. how low did those springs lower it?
Why wouldn't they be...Oh and just so you know the Eibach's on ly lower the car 1" all around... the Espelir springs drop the car 1.3"... Looks like you'll be getting the Eibach's then
Either way, the Eibach's lower the car 1" all around. If you start to go to low it will effect the CV boot and the extra stress will cause them to run hotter and develop heat cracks in the rubber.
I went with the Eibach's for the(in no particular order) look's, ride comfort, height/drop amount, their ability to work with stock shocks, a trusted proven name...

I have been known to drive the car hard. I don't auto-x but that doesn't mean anything. If your really going to auto-x your car you should be looking at coilovers for your car. oh and of course the KYB's will be stiffer Why wouldn't they be...
