MSP with springs thread!!!!

how hard is it to put some springs on? i really want the tien s's but i want to be able to do all my work and save money, ive never really done suspension work, my knowledge starts and ends in the engine bay, also will just putting springs on it kill my handlin? what if i put all the gt spec stuff and a 22mm rear sway on? thanks...

Hmm are you talking about the Eibach Sportlines? i went to both and didnt see them for the MSP, they however did have the Pro Kit..... $213 is an awesome price btw!!! (rockon)
I called them and I got the last set they had in stock.

You can go to the Eibach site and see if the other authorized dealer still has them.
 
i think eibach discontinued the sportlines, thats what Cullen told me...

I'm offering a Goldline sale on another board right now... I should set it up over here also.
 
YES, you should....im not gonna wait too much longer on the sportlines...depending on price (shipped) determines whether i buy.

I got a set of GoldLines in my garage, I just installed a set of custom Skunk2 coilovers. I love the way I was able to slam the car, but most people would want the stock Protege setup Skunk2 offers. I think all four springs are 6kg/mm and don't really know the height. I have seen 7" in front and 8" in back and 6" in front and 7" in back and also have seen different spring rates as well with Skunk2.

I am running 6" springs all the way around and have the fronts all the way down and the back down about an 1"1/2to 2" and have a lot more to go in the back if I wanted, but I noticed that I have not even a finger in front and the same in back. So it looks like the backs can go lower than the fronts.... and I have a higher spring rate due to the fact I'm going to be running 18" and be slammed and want to avoid rubbing....

can the sportlines still be gotten?

Yes, go to Eibachs website and hit the buy button. It will give you a list of suppliers who have Sportlines still in stock. Note, that they are in limited supply!

alrite i got a question, from what i can see, the rear looks the same as mine on pro-kit, pro-kit = 1.4 F and 1.8 R, Sportlines = 1.8 F and 1.8R, so to me obviously it just lowers the front.
 
I have seen other posts here with pictures and Goldlines have a similar stance as the Sportlines.
