Cool Lowering Car

Hello everyone, I desperately want to lower my car because i hate all the space in the wheel wells (and to take corners faster too of course ) but i dont have too much money to spend.....ive read many people say that the eibach and intrax springs dont lower enough, so i want coilovers....now as i am a noob, i was hoping u guys can tell me if these coilovers would be any good:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mitsu...spagenameZWD1V

and also if these would work instead of buying the adjustable control arms to fix the camber, and if i would need them for rear, front or both:
http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku
or these
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SPC-F...spagenameZWDVW

Thanks alot!!!

Well there are 2 different sets of Intrax. One set lowers more than the other. I just put in the set that lowers more on my car tonight, and it's plenty low for me, no more wheel gap. I wouldn't buy a cheap coilover kit on eBay, something just doesn't sit right when a coilover kit costs less than lowering springs .

As for the two camber products, you need neither of those. Those are for the front, you'll only need it for the rear. And you'll need adjustable control arms not eccentric cam bolts. Go to www.3sxperformance.com, there's also some sets on eBay sometimes a bit cheaper.

Re: Lowering Car

The wonderful world of ebay once again. I wouldn't trust those ebay springs. You get what you pay for.

I would buy the Eibach Ground Controls and the 3SX rear adjustable control arms. You can find both at 3sxperformance

Re: Lowering Car

Does lowering your car with just springs mess up the ECS controls on the VR-4's??

no, you can still switch back and forth as long as you use the same struts (which you will if you get just springs)
