Posting this for a friend, I never really looked into springs myself since I have coilovers, but looking for a spring that will drop around 2inches or whatever and is stiff. (no ebay coilover stuff please). Is there anything that drops lower then Eibach SPortlines? S13 by the way.

How about ground control? Height adjustable AND STIFF(if you so desire).

Well thats just that, your rolling on stock shocks/springs. Stiffer springs wont bottom out as easy.

Aren't ground controls coilovers ? hes looking for springs/shocks.....I could easily be wrong about the ground controls though?

KGMM DR21 Racing. Maybe S21 Racing but I dont know the drop. Maybe RSR race springs.

The lowest springs might not be the stiffest springs but you might wanna check out this thread full of all the info you're looking for.

The stiffest springs I know of off the top of my head are the RSR "race springs" and they will lower the car about 1.5 inches. You will also want to mate these up with some good struts such as KYB AGX or some KONI Yellows.

I have the tanabe sustec df210 springs that drop s14s to 2inches and its stiffer than the eibach sportlines according to the specs. The drop is perfect and i barely scrape over bumps. The drop is the nicest ive seen yet on any 240 but hopefully ill post up some pics of the drop soon.

if he REALLY wants to get low, he could buy my sportlines with a coil cut from the front. now thats what you call SLAMMED.

SilviaSR20DET, if you could post up a pic of your ride that would be great. I want to see what the drop looks like. Do you know the springs rates on them? Jed

Just save for some real coilovers. Not can-overs
