get some aftermarket struts and some h&r spring and u will be happy with the drop and ride....

 

I like the way your car sits right now.

 

that is sexy

 

stop being a bitch ! you think thats low? seriously i was looking for that drop.. ! look at my car when i installed eibachs last wkknd.

i go over speedbumps with no scrape at ALL. THIS is too low for eibach springs. yours is normal and fine.



In person its even lower, and im in NY.. pothole and speed bumps everywhere! the wheels are under the fender

edit- btw the bounce is normal.. yet very annoying! i cant go a block without it pissing me off. ah well i guess you get used to it.

 

Get shocks, then the alignment, call it a day. Be happy.

 

The the Sport Sedan sit lower stock than the Journey or Base?

 

Do you know which shocks will work for the 2nd gen sedan? I heard the tokiko blues were good but I can't find any that are made for my model.


also


If I get a set of Tein basics how low can I dial them in to avoid having to buy aftermarket hardware to correct the camber/toe?

I just want like 3/4 of an inch drop. It is too low at the moment with the eibachs.

 

Stock S wheels on eibach pro kit springs make me all warm and fuzzy inside! I love it!!!

 

If you're going to replace shocks might as well do a different set of springs or even some Tein basics.

But if you're looking for the least amount of drop try Impul, Tanabe NF210, or Tein H-tech. I personally have the Tanabe's and wished I did the eibach for looks. But since its my wife's car im glad I used the Tanabe's

 

So how log can I go with a set of tein basics without having to buy a camber kit?

 

I have Eibach's! and my car is not Bouncy at all that u describe! It rides better than the Factory Sport Coils! which were too stiff and jittery over bumps! Mine rides Softer and more controlled compared to OEM! it more Solid feeling with the Eibachs! since your car has High Miles, I am betting u have dead Shocks and Stuts, which can't control the spring over bumps anymore. Replace those and u should be fine, no more Bounce! and Enjoy the Drop!

 

OP with over 100K miles you need to replace the shocks as well. Since that's the case these boys know what they are talking about. Coils will solve all of your issues. You can adjust the height to wherever you want it, the springs are designed to go with the shocks in the kit so the ride is much more fluid than trying to match shocks to springs, and you will be able to adjust the dampening on the shocks to find the perfect ride for you. Trying to match aftermarket springs and shocks will never give you the quality ride or range of adjustability that coils will. If you look at spending $250 for springs and another $500 for shocks, for another couple of hundred dollars you can get a decent set of coils that you will be super happy with. Seems like a no-brainer to me.


Shame on you for even mentioning springs only, you know better...............

I'm on the verge of disowning you as my G son, so disappointing. I know I taught you better than that.

 

Yeah I have decided to just go with coilovers. I like the idea of them being matched properly. I guess the lesson is do it once and do it right.

When I get the coilovers do any I you know how low you can go without having to buy a camber kit? I heard as long as its an inch or less drop you are good.


Thanks do much for all te responses and feedback on my situation. I love g35driver.

 

I have eibach pro kit. Mine does not sit anywhere as low as yours. Is it because I have a journey? Mine rides smooth, no bounce at all. But I do wish mine is a little lower.
