Eibach Pro Kit

[colVR4]

I am still looking for the right kit to fit to my car (for the right price obviously). I have found the following kit:

Is this about the going rate for these springs. I have found someone who can fit them for me dirt cheap.

I had PI sports lowering spring on my galant 2.5 V6-97 they did not make much difference to ride but they did make a difference to the appearance.Wish i spent a bit more and gone for coil-overs (a good bit more)
cheers .........stevie............

Well mate if you want the Eibach's then hows this for a bargain ! :-D :-D

Found this US retailer selling them on eBay brand new - now wait it's a good deal

Same kit as you have seen - same code as the place you are looking at (6028.14) for the 6cyl Galant 1999>

They have 10 sets for sale with "Buy It Now" and it closes in 1 day - now the juicy bit:

Cost: $185 for the kit + $45 postage + $3 insurance = $233.....at todays rate thats a mere £126 all in :-D :-D :-D :-D a saving of £44 :-D

Now can you resist this price ?

Here's the link for you : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2456476223

H&R springs £110 + £20 P&P
The H&R springs are prgressive like Eibachs, (PI springs are nt progressive so you dont get the same quality...so i'm led to believe, had PIs on a mazda and they lowered it but did do much for the handling)
H&Rs are known for top quality with the VW boys!


Scottish Ian has Eibachs and he got them for around £130 from an alloy wheel specialist near Glasgow (Gordon Hazelton in Hillington).

According to the Eibach website their springs lower the car as follows:

Front: 30mm
Rear: 25mm

Looks like either kit is worth the money considering the HKS ones for the VR4 are £250 !

Had this come through on my e-mail from the original site I posted. With a 10% discount the price comes out at about £153. As you can see this is open to ALL CVR4 members :-D

Why not push your luck a little and tell him you can get them from the US for £126 delivered to your door - nothing to lose, he may do you an even better deal

[colVR4]

That sounds like a good idea. I shall send him the message and see what he says. If anybody else out there is interested, you could always try getting in touch as well (just to query the price etc) to show that there is interest from other CVR4 members. (Remember to add that you are a CVR4 member).

I am thinking that if we can get a good deal on the springs, he may give us deals on the other parts that he stocks

It could also be made into another 'bonus' of being a full CVR4 member, especially if he requires proof of membership. Also thinking advertising revenue for the website production 'gang'.

I have also got in contact with my local contact and he is a Eibach main dealer :-D He is gonna work out a price and call me back in a bit so hang fire before you order them

[Spirit]

Right, got a reply back and my guy will supply and deliver to your door for £150 all in :-D

yip i do have eibach's -30mm at the mo!,i'm thinking about change'n them for some thing a bit lower(-40) ? but the only spring's ive seen at
-40 are "PI" spring's? ive got a set of these that i had on my cavalier and they seam'd ok but when i put the full eibach kit on :wow: it totally transformed the handling,
:stare: also i'm thinking about these adjustable platform thing-ma-bob's? that turn your standard stuff in to adjustable spring's ????????.

PI springs [ check them out on POTN ] from my local 'bullseye' stockists, £99.75 + VAT !!

[colVR4]

still waiting for an answer back from the original dealer. I will keep you posted. Thanks for looking into it for me though guys.

Some good info coming out of it. I have read some fairly variable reviews of the PI springs. I get the idea from what people have said that the Eibach springs are much better, is this right?

[SGHOM]

OH !!! sod it !!! seeing as my wheels/tyres/brakes/discs/calipers will all be in bits next week !! I may as well fit new springs !! better do it now, than take it all apart later :$

[Kieran]

Derek's on a full-on spending spree! You must have deep pockets!

Won't lowered and stiffened suspension on those 18s be a bit crashy?

[Spirit]

So are these okay for the VR4 Derek or are you getting HKS ones ?

[SGHOM]

Checked with the supplier, & they are ok for the VR4 !!! I hope !!! :rolleyes5

[SGHOM]

I'm a bit unsure about these now ??? it says on POTN, that these springs are for Galant estates, 6 cyl , 96/99. no mention of VR4 ???

Hello!

My car has this lower Eibach springs, stock. It´s an editon.
These springs are quite good, the car goes quite good around the corners, an the springs are not too hard.
I never liked to lower a car only with spring without changing the stocks, but thes springs working quite good with the stock shocks.
And it´s makes the car looking quite good!
