Question

I wish my car to handle more efficiently and look better, lower. I believe a cheap way to get these results is the eibach springs ?
i live in north east england...teesside/cleveland area, drive a my99 impreza wagon and want to know:
where and how much for the lowering kit
and where and how much to get the work done ????
any help is very much appreciated as i want to do this asap but dont want to go into it blind !

nb35,

they should cost about £180 for new eibachs and an extra £100-150 to have em fitted, check/adjust tracking and camber. it wont lower the car a great amount, perhaps 10-15mm. the ride will be slightly firmer than standard UK springs but not as stiff as the STi. they dont mind bumps and give good all round handling. bit too soft for some though.

have a look at the spring rate chart under technical docs here for an idea of the springs stiffness.

speak to jamie at j-w-racing- he should be able to advise you and sort the spring out also.

cheers,
