I have the pro-kit with 17s on the wagon ... and with 215-45-17 tires no issue. I hope for that price it includes gold plating and installation - sounds really high.

I sold Kevin (focus_man_focus) a new pro-kit a couple of years ago, and IIRC I sold it for less than half the amount you quoted above - and that's CAD including all taxes etc.

EDIT: if you're talking about the full suspension (Eibach Pro System) including springs and dampers -- and if that's for new and Canadian $, then that's actually a good price.

$722.xx?

that's a good deal if it's the WHOLE kit....

Springs, Struts/Shocks and sway bars

If it's the Springs and Struts/Shocks it's very high, you'd be better to go with just the Springs and KYB AGX shocks/struts and it will be cheaper and leaves room for if you want to go lower and get sportlines

And Ken got me just the springs (Eibach PRO) for $265 taxes in , But the CDN dollar was doing ALOT better at the time (couple months ago :( )

btw thanx alot Ken!! :D

this si for the entire kit sway bars...everything....but you guys are saying to go lower i want the sportlines???

does anyone have a pic of the sportline system plus... and what it comes with

or would i want these??

you guys tell me what would be better

Sportlines.

I only installed the Pro-Kit springs, like Ken said and I am starting to worry about becoming a Plow if we get more than 6" of snow in one dump. I just used the stock struts and I do not have any problems with bottoming. I am pretty sure IIRC that the sportline kit is way low. If you are driving year round you will have problems. Good luck on your quest.

yeah theres a full kit, cant remember how much,
but i think its about $950 for everything

just get springs for now, swaybars and all that wont really be put to use unless you are tracking the car or whatever on the roadcourse, sportlines will sit you pretty low, would look good...and my driveway is probably alot worse than yours and my rear doesnt scrape, my front will only scrape if i dont angle enough and go reallllllllllllllllllllllly slow, try different ways of angling out and you should be good :D

Here's the Pro-kit on 17" Motegi MR7's and Dunlop SPFM901's

actually i change my vote to prokit after seeing those...i know you say you wanna go low but remember you live in hamilton..our roads are GARBAGE and any lower than that will kill the car and make you not wanna drive it, even that will be pretty rough but it still enhances the look and somewhat maintains driveability around the hammer

The sportline kit is better. I would have went that way but my driveway has this nice "hump" which currently scrapes my front bumper once in a while.

seems we all have driveway problems, lol! Mine is terrible, its honestly a hill and I take 3x as long getting in and out of out because i have to go slower than a turtle and on an harsh angle, i'll take some pictures soon so you can see what i deal with :ph34r:

heres the sportline kit with 205-40-17 tires

heres with 215-45-17 tires

My drive way is very steep, i only scrape if i dont go in on an angle and slow

sportlines FTW


btw, ive seen ur car around castone in cambridge and guelph! i drive a red 07 zx4 GFX, ull hear me... its loud as ****

weird, the sportlines dont look as low as I thought they would make the car go..looks similar to the car with the prokit, but maybe thats just the way I see it..that black one with sportlines looks good, i like it better with the bigger tires B)
