I have been talking with Scott from Eibach about creating a Sportline Kit for our cars. Now in order to do it i need 50 people who are willing to prepay to Eibach and 1 doner Car (merly to test the new springs when completed). Now were are working on pricing we hope to keep the kits between 200 and 250$ range. I have talked it out and they will only do 50 kits Pre-paid because of there production schedual. Now this is only a poll to see who would be intrested. Like all Eibach kits it will ahve a progressive spring rate so that in normal driving, is still comfortable yet hard cornering is solid and very reliable.

more details, is this more sporty than the current Eibach springs being sold?? Is it a complete kit including antiroll bars, etc.?? Struts as well?
Eibach coilovers?

IMHO, I doubt you would see anything other than a slightly different spring than what's currently available. No offense, but you wont get "50 kits pre-paid". I think you'd be lucky to get 15 - 20. Best of luck though on this GB.

No offence is taken.....Its just a poll n-e-ways to see if it is even worth offer4ing as a GB......Right now the esitmate in drop is 2.0 inches all the way around...Now thats an estimate Scott and i ahve come up with but we are positive it will change as the days progress.....this is only for the SPrings......now we could also do a GB for them to create an Anti-roll kit, but that would take a lot more time because they have to do R&D on someones car.
So this is a Spring Kit Only....More details to come within a week or 2....right now i just need a tally of who might be intrested.....I know i know....people need details....and im working on it, but everything is still in the process because they prototype kit has not even been made yet....its still a "drawing board sketch". Now they told me it can be done!!! but in order to do it they need a confirmed 50 orders with prepay ment. Thats why i made this poll now, instead of when i get the info.
And they cannot do singel kits, because it is cheaper to do in large quantities.

I agree that 50 is a lot. also that I would be more interested in a coilover setup.
