Default eibach pro springs

I finally got my Eibach springs on the car yesterday and they are fantastic. Car is still stupidly low at the front, but it's nowhere near as crashy as it was. Speedbumps are no longer a problem and the wheels seem very well planted on the road (not bad considering the camber problems)

Can't wait to try them out in the dry

Did anyone get a camber kit in the end? I'm thinking it might be on the cards after christmas.

They are makkis ones off CRX UK

220stg delivered but they will be 250 shortly I think

Also thats exchanging your old ones afaik.

Its very hard to get proper front camber kits for efs. I dont like the ingells one at all and it supposed to be the best out there.

I have also a Full-Race traction bar on the way so I will be able to adjust the castor too if needs be.

The rears are easy to sort without a kit but may get one eventually.

yeah, I hear a coupe of washers will sort out the rear. 220 sterling is a lot though.

any idea if these would fit?

The first one you psoted wont fit as the efs ball joint is offset.

The second one I think is just the two ball joints, not the whole arm, they are like the ingalls ones.Give Rob an email at NLM he may be able to help ya a bit more, tell him John from Ireland sent ya

Makkis are actually very well designed imo.

I'm not saying thy aren't well designed, it's just that I could find better ways of spending the money.

I've been thinking about getting a set of height adjustible konis for the front and raising the ride height a notch instead.

Ah I know that mark, I was meaning they are the best design I have seen over the rest.

Ive heard some stories of the balljoint Ingalls type slipping etc.

Well worth the money for what youd save on tyres
