Eibach sportline spring kit

[BeattieCPB]

anybody got these springs in your car? any pics?.. thinking of ordering a set of these tonight, just basicaly wondering what the ride is like in general...

 

[Matthew]

Hi mate, the ride is spot on, better than standard for me, less crashy over the bumps.

Here's a few pic on mine...

Defo worth the investment if your not looking to propper slam your car...

 

[Brett]

I've got them. No pics at the minute but I recommend them 101%. The ride is good, a little stiffer than standard.

The handling has improved 10 fold for me. There seems to be more grip, more feel and generally more excitement & fun.

 

[Brett]

Just noticed yours isnt a sport. I have no experience of them on non RS personally but i'm sure they're equally good. They lower it more too on the non RS.

 

[Tigger]

IIRC the RS Sportlines will fit the non-sports

If so, you fancy buying mine?

 

[BeattieCPB]

im looking to buy new ones mate .. any idea how much the insurance will go up?

 

[Tigger]

Who are you with? All insurance people are different about mods

Welcome to come for a spin at the next meet or anytime you're free if you want to know what they are like first - I'm driving though :rasp:

 

[BeattieCPB]

ill keep that in mind matey, your from dungannon?..
insurance company is axa direct as far as i know

 

[Tigger]

Yeah I'm in that lovely place - stop reminding me lol where are you based?
I added you to my msn BTW

 

[edewer]

got charged £22.50 by admiral for coilies if that helps

 

[BeattieCPB]

anybody know anything regarding axa direct.. im on my dads insurance

 

[Matthew]

Its abit of a grey area mate, modding "your dads car" lol

Although its probably more beleivable than modding a mothers car I suppose..

How olds your dad if you dont mind me askin?

 

[BeattieCPB]

45 lol.. probs no chance

 

[Matthew]

lol - Only thing is, if you have a crash, they might question who actually owns/drives the car.

Something to bare in mind pal....

 

[BeattieCPB]

yip but its all in my dads name and im insured under him anyway so im allowed to drive the car, that wouldnt come into it surley?

 

[Matthew]

Yeah they have got really funny with this over the past year or 2.

I was doing the same as you on me very 1st car, back in the day lol

I dont know how they would prove you drive it more than your dad though

I personally would risk it, but its entirley upto you mate..

 

[BeattieCPB]

lol yeah i know where your comming from, at the minute they think i only drive a couple of thousand miles per year and that my dad is the main driver

 

[Matthew]

Unless they start following you around with a video camera, I cant see them finding out tbh lol

 

[BeattieCPB]

exactly, just need to fone them about these springs now

 

[Matthew]

Get ready to bend over mate lol...

 

[Tigger]

Not telling your insurance crowd about your mods FTL TBQFH :slap:

 

[clio_luke]

handling is good imo. improverd a little over standard, lowered slightly, less bodyroll, not crashy, good turn in. great set up for standard shocks. i have used cup suspension, apex, prolines and sportlines. i like sportlines best as an allrounder.

mine
