Eibach Pro Kit Springs

By the way are you guys changing you struts at the same time???

I'm not changing the shocks. I prefer to change them when they've worn out so that they can be thrown out rather than taking valuable real estate in the garage.

Got my whiteline control springs installed today and I'm extremely happy with it. First impressions were that I thought that it was only going to lower the car by 30mm, but it looks like it's lowered it even further. The fronts are lower than the rears. Handling has improved so much and has significantly minimised that irritating body roll when turning. Also when changing lanes, I get more responsive steering rather than that floating feeling.

At long last, I'm going to start enjoy driving this car around the bends.

Hey Daz,

I've called all the midas in the sydney Metro area for quotes their prices vary significantly as they are franchise.

I'm a bit sus with the quote the guy at rockdale gave me because it's just to cheap.

I spoke to a guy at Peakhurst and he gave whiteline springs a real baging.

I think he quoted $180 for fiting and align.

I'm going to try these two guys tommorrow.

You got some good prices there that put what I paid to shame. Most places in Sydney that I called wanted $250 installed and aligned. They even told me that the rear wheel alignment was necessary !

Ever since I got my whiteline springs, I have to take speed humps and parking with care - the side skirts can easily be scratched on the footpath/gutter.

do you "NEED" aligning?

[SuperDave]

Yes

There is no point in making suspension changes if your wheels aren't pointing in the correct direction. The handling may in fact become worse afterwards, not to mention you risk premature wear on your tyres.

Lowering/raising McPherson strut layout (and other types) causes the camber angles to change as well as the toe angles, this is due to the inherent dynamic changes that are designed into the suspension.

Plus it only costs around $30-40 for an alignment...

[hotboxcivic]

is there a need for rear alignment?

[SuperDave]

If you have a torson beam rear end, late 02-current Corolla, than you will only need the front end done.
