Springs

[MindBlowin03]

I ordered Sprint springs. I will give a review when I get them. Any body else have them?

Yeah..I don't like them. They are too soft and bouncy. They dropped my car very nice though. Not recommended for track racing...mostly for show. I'm planning on upgrading with Eibach Sportlines and Tokico Illumina's soon. I'll post the review with those upgrades later.

its probally not the springs that are soft and bouncy, its the stock shocks. They CANNOT withstand any lowering whatso ever. I just replaced mine with tokicos and am glad i did. no more bounce, bounce

yeah... I knew it was the stock shocks thats causing most of the bounciness but I when I put those springs in, the shocks were brand new (less than 50 miles old). i figured it would last for a couple of hundred miles but I immediatley noticed the bounciness of it. If my struts were brand new and the springs were the only ones replaced, I figured the springs were junk (knowing that my shocks were still good). I don't know..maybe the stock shocks weren't even good enough to handle it for the first couple of hundred miles. The thing is... my cousin has Sprint springs and KYB's on his Del Sol and it pretty much rides the same. then again....different car..different ride?..

but your right though....gotta get those damn Illuminas!!!
