Found some eibachs for $370AUD, will the ride still be good with stock shocks? don't really have the money for shocks as the current one's still seem to work great.

On the BJ [but not all cars], Eibach Pro-kit springs are better than stock for comfort.

That's a really good price.

Looks like i got the last set

lol

mynameisdaniel · 18-04-2010, 01:32 PM

Eibachs have been installed

and wheel alignment has been done. Car is even more amazing to drive now and looks tough. Ended up being about 45mm lower rather than the claimed 30mm, but it still gets up the driveway so it's good

.
Just like to thank everyone who recommended these springs and helped me find em

Pics soon to come after I make a few more minor changes to the car.

mynameisdaniel · 21-04-2010, 11:15 PM

Quick pic of the new springs installed. Gonna go out for a proper shoot another day.

marcs_sp20 · 22-04-2010, 06:21 AM

looks awesome

Do I also spot a 323 badge from the UK? Now all you have to do is shave the door molding

NaughtyGT · 22-04-2010, 07:19 AM

^^ lose the moulding........lose the moulding

mynameisdaniel · 22-04-2010, 07:22 AM

yep well spotted Marc think it's a little big but it's growing on me

haha yeah side molding isn't coming off anytime soon

as the rear passenger side door has been repainted around the side molding so if i take it off i will have a hole in the top layer of paint lol.

Lachlan · 22-04-2010, 07:31 AM

The car does always look heaps better minus the molding, so hopefully sometime you will take them off. Nice ride height though. and i have that badge too...

Tina · 22-04-2010, 08:10 AM

RustyKaos · 30-04-2010, 05:32 PM

Looking good.

mynameisdaniel · 11-05-2010, 11:41 PM

Got a few goodies in the mail today, eyelids came in and my eBay SRI with K&N Pod Filter.
Installed the intake and am very happy with the difference. I was only expecting a vacuum sound but it really roars when you put your foot down :P Feels like I have a lot more horsepower down low, although I can see my fuel consumption going out the window as I just want to rev the car in every gear now

lol
