Eibach 30mm Pros Fitted!

Jonaldinho · Aug 15, 2005

Got my pros fitted today and all I can say is what a difference to standard. The look is fantastic and cornering is no longer a sequence of rolls!

Purchased them from Motorsportworld for around £150 inc delivery and they arrived on the Monday after I had ordered them on the Fri.

Lookin good matey!

davebem · Aug 15, 2005

Looks nice and smart, the fronts look like the need to settle more. Is your car monaco blue? It looks very similar to how my car used to look.

Im not too sure about the colour name mate but ill find out. It is very similar if it is not MB though.

Yeah still looks a bot high at the front , told you it would be worth it !! Rear end will look spot on with the ph2 lights (wanna sell me my spoiler back

)

Corners bring on a new meaning now I bet , i remember when i first got it done i went out of my way to find corners/roundabouts - never wears off either

Where did you get them fitted in the end ???????

Just arranged a new interior for mine , new spoiler to come when i find one thinking about new style bumpstrips and a wee bit of colour coding

looks good. i had to rewire all my rear lights when i put my phase 2 lights in. could just be mine but it sucked....end result is loads better though.

Jonaldinho · Aug 16, 2005

I got them fitted at Hi-Q Shaun as my Dad offered to pay since I looked after the Farm while they were on their hols. And you aint getting your spoiler back sir har har

And terribleclio I had rewired them in readiness to fit the lights but my phase 1 bulb holder was having none of it. I then realised I needed a phase 2 one and changed it back. You probs got the holder with the lights. I should have reseached it a bit more DOH!

looking a lot better m8 ..... will be a vast improvement in the handling also eh

I was out tonight having a play with having the sportlines fitted ..... am lovin it

telford_mike · Aug 16, 2005

Looking good. Mine settled quite a bit within a few thousand miles.

Hector · Aug 16, 2005

the handling is much better i found. Did it more for the look though to be honest. Theyre 15s arent they... ive got 16s and it looks just right i think. should settle a bit more though

Jonaldinho · Aug 16, 2005

Yes 15s mate and cheers for the comments folks so far!

Hector · Aug 16, 2005

definite improvement

Ally · Aug 16, 2005

Good work! Nice and subtle mod, but looks a lot better for it.

/Hijack: Scott, how are those Sportlines feeling compared to your old springs? Firmer ride, much lower? Hijack/

JoelDee · Aug 16, 2005

Much better

Eviction was the only option mate, the garage had a job getting them to move

Djw John · Aug 23, 2005

Great difference mate, hows the ride and getting down your road?

Jonaldinho · Aug 23, 2005

Cheers bud, the ride is even smoother than I thought. Very comfortable

ollie82 · Aug 24, 2005

looking good mate, I Lowered mine -35 and it settled down loads within a couple of months.

Ali · Aug 24, 2005

Nice one jonny, looks 10 fold beta...Just about 45mm to go!! lol.

Gareth · Aug 24, 2005

good improvement

Rufstuf · Aug 24, 2005

Lookin good John

.

You wont regret buying the eibachs. They are the best compromise for ride, comfort and handling IMO. And they will come down more after a few weeks.

170bhp · Sep 3, 2005

dropped 30mm by eibach, why it still looks higher than a standard 172/182 ... ?? why?

patty · Sep 3, 2005

def better!

standard 172/182 is lower as standard to the 1.2s, 1.6s etc

Martin_172 · Sep 3, 2005

still looks quite high but it should be better once its settled! you got any pics of it before it was lowered?

Jonaldinho · Sep 4, 2005

Done basically no milage since lowering due to work, no college e.t.c so they still have loads to settle.

KyleB · Sep 4, 2005

definate improvement, and will get even better when they settle

nice one!

patty · Sep 4, 2005

sit on the bonnet for a bit

GarethM · Sep 4, 2005
