Thanks for the compliments guys. I got them on japanparts.com and payed $700. They're just the springs and then front drop is 3/4 of an inch and the back is 1/4 of an inch. I didn't do the install myself, I had it done by a local shop.

That's what the specs on the box said it would drop it. I didn't take measurments before, so I have noting to compare it to.

Doesn't it? I'm digging these though. Expensive but I guess paying 700 for springs is like the same as paying 240 + frt and rear cambers.

Ya its a great drop, I'm thinking of getting these now.
When I read how small of a drop it gave, I thought it was pointless but its a really nice drop.

That's what I was thinking. They were put on on Saturday, so they have about a week to go.

Yeah, that's about 36mm (almost 1.5") drop in the front, and 11mm (almost 1/2") in the rear... so, basically almost double what they claim. Wonder if the Japan domestic cars sit lower than ours stock? Either way, they look great!

Check again in a week and see if they've settled in anymore or not.

Anyone on here with Eibachs that can take some measurements for us?

Just curious. Did any of the paperwork list the spring rates on these springs?

Honestly, I hope they don't drop any more. I just checked the packing slip and it didn't have any measurments on it.
