I got eibach sportlines - I like em a lot - great handling in comparison to before, and nice look, though I don't think it is as low as advertised and ride quality is a bit lower

I just put my eibachs in yesterday and so far i like em a lot. I took out the isolators so the springs lowered it like a good 2". It looks real good i will have some pics up soon.

As for the gears...Rear End Specialties out of Santa Clara will do them with new FMS gears for 455, thats everything out the door and i think 355 with used FMS gears out the door.

Hope this helps
Jared

Hey I was wondering if you knew what needs to be done to pull the isolators off AFTER the spring has been installed. I've had mine on for like a year now and would like to ditch the isolators

first- if you are gonna lower it and do gears, you should think about getting a new driveshft. i am assuming you have a cobra cause of your name, and my buddies lowered 98 had some problems with gears and a 2" drop. the driveshaft was smacking the bottom of the car, until he replaced it with a griggs 3" driveshft.

to pull out the isolators after you install the springs, you are gonna have to take the springs out, pull off the isolators, and put em back on.
