I am running Eibach Pros with Tokico Blues and the front is sitting 1" too low. I am sure this is due to the extra weight of my motor swap, turbo, etc... My tires scrub lightly on hard turns and it will bottom out on occasion on heavy dips in the road. It rides fine but gets annoying!

The rear sits perfect so I don't need to swap those.

I no longer have my OEM springs. Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
David

sitting too low for your preference??? or lower than they are supposed to drop? if they are sagging lower than they are rated to drop then call eibach, id imagine they would take care of yah

Motor has nothing to do with it. The weight of a LY2 and a 2JZ-GE is about a 100 lbs. difference. Check the spring part numbers and make sre they are correct. Did you do the rear also?

I agree that the weight (only a 100lb or so) should not matter. The rear sits perfect with the eibach springs. The front looks great too but it bottoms out way too easy.

I'll verify the P/N... thanks!

your running eibach pro springs?

That's the part number for the SC300 pro-kits which will drop the car maybe .5" lower up front because of the extra weight of your motor. I'm running the same springs on my SC400 but they didn't drop as low as yours up front. The front shocks might be blown already if it's bottoming out easily. I installed mine on the stock shocks which have about 54,000 miles on them and they haven't bottomed out on my drives so far *knocks on wood*
I have had experience with the Tokico blues and they do wear out pretty quickly compared to the stock struts so I am guessing that would be the problem with your car.

Thanks all... Any recommendations on what springs I can swap to?
