#73153 Anyone use the Eibach coilovers? I was thinking of buying them but I don't have much feedback on them.

Opinions would be great! Thanks

#73196 prostreet s full coilovers, yeah, I gots em on my Sol. I like em very much. a little stiff but damn they made my sol handle sooooo much better. Freeway driving is smooth, a little less on city streets. Whatcha payin for em? you could get some fully adjustables for what they were goin for when I got em. Used to work for Wheelpros, so I got em for about a third of retail. Still like em though :thumb:

#73340 Thanks for the input. I'm getting them for $900....

I am planning to do the eibach coilovers, swaybars F&R, and fully polly bushings when I do my Integra brake upgrade. It should be a Huge improvement from the monster truck I'm driving now..lol.

#73399 clean civic. i'm jealous.

#73419 Thanks.....it took some work to get it looking decent. The $950 I spent on fixing rust and bodywork could have bought my suspension....

All in time man. Good luck.

#77670 Did you get them on yet :?

#80414 Not yet... I am actually ordering tomorrow...

It will be awhile before I install. I am doing my brake upgrade and suspension all at the same time. I still have a few parts to buy and then find time in this cold NJ winter to get it done.

When I install, I am hoping to do a full write-up on my GSR brake swap, full poly bushings, eibach coilovers and eibach front and rear sways....

Should be exciting...:)

Thanks all

#81418 Received them today! I will do a full review after the install.

They look amazing!!!!

I can get them for $850 if anyone is interested. That is considerably cheaper then what I have seen.

#81647 Put them on already!!! :woot:

#81894 LOL.... Yeah I know, I am slacking.

I am doing a full suspension and steering upgrade when I do these babies.
Here is my list.

GSR brake conversion F&R
Hawk Pads
Goodridge SS lines
Brembo Rotors
ITR Master Cylinder and booster
RS prop valve
ATI fluid

Eibach Pro Street Coilovers
Eibach Sway Bars F&R
Full Polyurethane bushings

Power Steering Conversion (removal)
New Tie rods Inner & Outer
New Ball Joints Upper & Lower


As you can see I have a lot of prep work to do. But it should go pretty quick once I get started. I have all replacement control arms for the front and rear so the bushings will be done before the swap. It will pretty much be remove and replace for all 4 corners. Should only take me a few days for everything, granted I don't have to start sourcing broken bolts.

I will take lots of pictures and post them up. Hopefully this will happen in mid January. I know, I know.......school and work has got me strapped to the wall. I'll get there:)

Oh yeah, you don't think all of this sweet handling and awesome braking is for nothing........the really fun project is around the corner....:)

WOW! 900 bucks for a coilover sleev and shock set up.

for less the 900 I would've gotten sum ksport. And for 900 I would've gotten sum d2's or functions.

Which all are 32 to 36 way adjustable. Damping, ride height and spring rate adjustability.

#81946 Well, for $900 I bought the Eibachs.
