it's pos.. because they r good for lowering.. and have a pretty better handling then stock.. over all i'm getting same kind eibachi spring ground control coil-overs.. and they r good kind, lowers good and have pretty good handling then stock.. :bootyshak
Don't know about the ebach set, but I really loved my prodrive springs. Car had much better response then compared to stock WRX springs. If I remeber correctly I bought them from SOG for around $300. Remember after swaping springs to get your alignment done!
Ive got Prodrives on my 02 if you wanna see pics look here http://www.wrxatlanta.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4289 ps. mines the blue sedan, the wagon is on stock springs.
Here is some pics of my 04 before and after: That's stock That's the car with the prodrive springs I believe the springs lower the car 1.5" in the front and 1" in the rear. Somebody correct me if I am wrong.
THanks for the reply's! One more question... Do the wrx's require a camber kit with a mild drop like an inch to inch and a half?
You shouldn't need a camber kit with a mild drop. As for the prodrive springs, they provide a nice mild drop, and greatly improve the handling. Make sure to get a good alignment after you swap springs. I would highly recommend going to Gran Turismo East, as they do a great job. If you want help swapping springs and get them in time, come to install day! -- Brian
Hopefully not for long! I'm looking into the Espelir Active GT springs which are a good bit stiffer than the Prodrives.
That would be great! I should have them this weekend... so I will be at the install day. Thanks again for the reply's!
im leaning towards the tein s techs since i had them on my last car. havnt decided yet. how much does alignment run?
A performance alignment from SoG is $150 or so. Also, Gran Turismo performs any aligment for something like $100. You will not need camber/caster plates or eccentric bolts with your car lowered unless you would prefer to exceed alignment specs (which are quite low surprisingly on the WRX). Oh, why not get the H-techs instead of the S-techs, at least those are designed for handling. Good luck!
I like my Eibach prokit springs. The handling is definitely improved. The drop is nice as well, but there is still more gap in the front than in the rear. Not that big of a deal if you can fill them up with a nice wide wheel and tire. I am definitely looking into some struts, because for autox the springs weren't enough. There is still some body roll. You can definitely notice the negative camber in the rear with them, but I am looking to dial that out at my next alignment.
