Eibach Springs and Fitting

[ZanClio]

Hey just asking for some advice on which eibach springs give the biggest drop for the clios mk2 non sport also how easy are they to fit and also whats all this stuff with the torsion bar?, will i only get 2 springs for the front and have to adjust the torsion bar at the back?
Help! Cheers

if thats the car u have in the profile then U will get 4 springs no torsion bar and also fairly easy to fit if u half know what u are doin

Very easy job, think it's the sportlines will give you about a 30mm drop. If you're after a bit more, Apex give you 40mm and are also good springs.

 

[ZanClio]

ah rite ookies, was thinking apex but i think the eibach will be slightly less harsh on the current shocks

Is this something 1 person could do on thier own with a trolley jack and a set of socket spanners ?
A point in the right direction would be really good.
I fancy lowering my car, but don't fancy spending another £100 at a garage getting them to the springs for me.

Yeah you can do it on your own with a socket set and some good strength! lol. Shouldn't be paying anymore than £50-£60 tops for a garage to fit them. Do it yourself, it's more fun and rewarding! lol. Just make sure you spray loads of wd40 on the bolts 24hrs before. There's some good guides on here. Do a search for 'lowering guide'.

Eibach Pro's give 30mm drop, and sportlines give 50mm (i think its 50) on non sport models.

 

[Fred@BTM]

incorrect

pros give arounf a 10mm drop

sportlines 30mm drop

 

[theduck]

Just checked, eibach quote upto 40mm on pro's and 50mm on sportlines, and my pro's DEFINATELY dropped it 30mm

 

[Fred@BTM]

i'm talking about the RS's mate, probably different for the poverty versions (joke )

 

[theduck]

well i did say non-sport, and the guy asked the question has a non-sport

but your right it is different for poverty spec to RS's.

 

[Fred@BTM]
