ebay springs

[habeansha]

anyone have any experience with them? how bad or they?

i will probably either get those or maybe msp springs but i dont know if 3/4" drop is enough for me, would comparing those to the stock springs be like comparing a stock sedan to a stock msp?

im only gonna be willing to pay about $100 bucks for the springs so these are pretty much my only options

save up and wait...

If you want to drop your car on the cheap, want to keep the stock struts, and don't care too much about performance, consider Goldline or Progress springs.

You won't be happy with the MSP springs. Who knows what you're getting with eBay springs.

whats wrong with the msp springs?


and if i wanted to drop my car for cheap couldnt i just like go to the beach and fill up some bags with sand and through them in the trunk and shove some in the engine?

^The drop looks bad, and it's not much of a drop to begin with. looks like a backward rake almost.

 

[habeansha]

anyone have pics of how bad it looks on a sedan, or a p5?

 

[JoshP5]

There are some pics in my MSP vs. RB spring thread. Check post #11. Those are MP3 springs on stock struts, but you'll get the same effect with MSP springs. The reason for this is explained in the thread.

awesome i think you guys saved me like $100 bucks from my not buying the msp springs, what should i get instead of springs that is around 100 bucks?

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

save your money and get springs...

Why not get good springs for $200?

You could try Evotion springs. A couple members run them they are $50 on ebay.

I've been thinking about them, but really I'm leaning toward spending the money on some better stuff.

Yeah, it's those, and yes it looks like a divider.

I wouldn't get it....

tein, eibach, espelir are among the best.

bunch of other trustworthy springs out there too.

i have espelirs and i think they offer the best of both worlds. linear and progressive is a good combo.

 

[JoshP5]

Spring rates aren't specified, tensile is spelled "tencil." They look like linear springs but who knows. I guess that's what you get for 50 bones.

 

[mhrebin]

the rears look progressive, but i could be wrong. that is how my espelirs looks. closer together coils on one end for the rear springs.

hell, all 4 could be progressive, looking at it now. who knows.

anyone who has these springs, do you know?

Yeah, I know of two members. One of them is Worbit, I believe.

A quick search will reveal that

I mean, they give a nice drop from what I could tell. And the one guy who I mentioned loves them (dunno)
