i agree... i was looking into the eibach springs. It lowers about 1 -1.5 inches. Chuck said that is perfect and its 1 hell of a deal considering the spring kit runs about $325

I dont think you will find many with springs only. I dont think the stock shocks can handle the lowered stance. Id rather do it right then skimp. So Im waiting to buy Motons. My buddies with Motons rides so nice and handles great. Its pricey but well worthy it from every review Ive heard.

i dont see all the hype of the motons....id at least try the eibachs first

You wont understand until you drive one with and without. I cant comment on Gen1,2 but its the best way to go on a Gen 3.

I would also recommend Penske's. Have them on mine and they are excellent. They are adjustable as to ride height, in addition to being adjustable for stiffness and rebound.

If you get the Motons or Penske's, make sure the installation puts the stiffness adjustment cylinders in a quick-access location vs on the suspension elements. Recommend attached to the shock tower braces for the fronts, and to the top rear of the trunk wall for the rears. In this way so can easily adjust the stiffness depending on the driving you plan on doing. For me, I drive to and from the track on full soft, then set to full stiff before running laps.

Despite TYPOs in some vendor catalogs, Eibach does NOT yet have an SRT10 Spring kit. I spoke with them last week and they have a development car just completed but NO PRODUCT for several wide-open weeks yet. SOME VENDORS HAVE SOLD THE WRONG KIT BELIEVING THE OLD TYPO. Your car will bottom out w/ this kit. Eibach will have a revised bump-stop, and spring rate for SRT10 correct kits soon.

SEARCH SPRING CAPS... numerous photos and happy testimonials were posted a few months ago on this site.

We also have KWs under $3300 !

For the few hundred dollars extra, don't waste your time on the KW's, do a search and read some of the nightmares that people have had with the KW's. The Moton or Penske systems are sooooo much better:2tu:
