[kalido]

hi guys,
I've gone thru most of threads on this topic but i still need a little help from guys out there ?

1) Would it damage my stock shocks and struts if i were to lower it with say springs from eibach ?? ( Proton Waja 1.6 - 1 year old )

2)Will i be trading off a noticeble amount of comfort if i go for the eibach+ stock abs configuration ??

3)Anyone sellin it out there ?? ... :)

Pls advice cause im really plannin to upgrade to eibachs in this comin week .

Thanks in advance

1) nope... eibach springs are design to match with oem absorbers.... so, it will not damage ur absorber, given that u drive normally and dont whack all potholes u can find....

2) reviews from previous eibach users, comfort is considerably good for a lowered springs... but of coz, it wont be as good as ur oem spec.... coz lowered springs alwiz jeopardize ur car comfort...

3) try find in zth marketplace... there is someone selling eibach springs... if not, try enquire from ur nearest performance shop...

may i know how much eibach can lower for waja? and the length can be adjusted?

erm... about 35mm... according to what eibach claims...
nope, height cant be adjusted.... if u wanna buy height adjustable, go for coilovers... :regular_smile:

35mm cant really see the different :-s

btw if i upgrade my ride to turbo, the eibach spring will be enough for my application ka?

well, if you are gonna put in a turbo engine, i think this kinda springs would cause your car to squat when the turbo kicks in... cause this springs are slightly harder than stock springs only... not too hard and not too soft and 35mm is alot and the difference is very noticeable =)

ah looks like i wont go wrong with eibachs..
thanks guys...

Can anyone recommend to me a good eibach+struts+shocks configuration that performed well ? Good in terms comfort and performance balance.

Thanks again guys....

it won't damage your abs or struts, because spring will onli affect your car's ride and hight.
2)Will i be trading off a noticeble amount of comfort if i go for the eibach+ stock abs configuration ??
will, because your current (stock) absorber will not match the new spring's bounce-rebounce rate.
