sedan springs..
ive been searching and reading posts about springs and ive come across a lot of posts that say that most springs are made for coupes only and wont work well on sedans..some people with sedans had sagging and other problems...i would liek to know what springs are there that are made for a sedan that will work good? maybe around a 1.3-1.5 drop??

I had eibach prokit on my sedan. I didn't like the drop. The rear wheel gap is much smaller than the front. Now I have goldlines and the rear wheel gap is just barely smaller than the front. With the eibach prokit, the overall lowering was barely noticable. I think the prokit is specifically made for coupes.
I just bought Tein S-Tech- they are made for a sedan. Not installed yet, and the rates are a touch soft, but im gonna try em anyhow- will post when they are on (about a week prolly)
I have a brand new pair of Eibach Springs Sportline's for sale..I never used them brand new and never opened the box..I have an 03' Sedan and they were going to work fine. Smoeone else I know has the same vehicle as me and it's about 1.4" drop

I have Neuspeed Sports on my sedan and I love the drop...but I dont have a kit.
Can anyone recommend shocks to replace the stock ones? Im pretty sure Ive blown the rear ones...

With a pro-kit, the lowering is SUPPOSE to be barely noticeable.

I got Sportlines on my sedan and it drops lower than 1.4 inches.
OK, yesterday I put the S-Tech springs on my 03 EX sedan. (all stock, except on 215/45/17, and stb) I am very happy. The drop is nice and will prolly increase some with time. The drive however is where it really shines. There is no bounce at all, and zero ride harshness. It seems to really work well with the stock shox. Body roll and brake dive was greately reduced. I would say the ride is about 10% stiffer feelings, not much at all when driving normal, you only feel the difference really when you put the car through its paces (hard turns, braking, etc.)
