Hey everyone...

What the heck am I to do?

I'm looking at a few different options. I'd like to tighten up the feel, reduce roll, increase dampening (with dampening adjustability for when I don't plan on driving aggressively) and lower the car slightly.

I know that everyone on this board seems to be pretty dedicated to coilovers, but I'm just not convinced. They're just too expensive, and I get the feeling that I'll never be done tinkering with the ride height and settings.

I've looked at the Eibach Pro System Plus, which at about a grand, including springs, shocks, and a front roll bar seems like a great deal. The only thing that concerns me is the lack of an upgraded rear roll bar... strange on a car that pushes so easily.

Does anyone have any experience wit the Eibach Pro System Plus? How about some suggestions for a quality (just `cause I don't want to spend a lot doesn't mean I'm not interested in quality) coilover system for under 2 grand?

Thanks for your suggestions.

<Just reread your post-- no adjustability w/ this setup...>

Night and day over stock, and a LOT cheaper than the coilover options...

HUGE difference in handling-- car much more neutral in the twisties...

It was comfortable on the street, but still held it's own when pushed, greatly reducing body roll &amp; dive. Even did well at the track. I upgraded to the Stasis Track Sports because I wanted something a little stiffer for the track, plus I added a Neuspeed rear sway bar (19mm). Other CO options include H&amp;R street (~$1200). ECS also offers a CO system for well under $1000. I'm not sure if the pic above is Street or Track Sports, but I believe the height is around 25.5" all around. Pic in my sig is the street sports under hard braking form 100 mph to 40 mph.

Koni Adjustable Coilovers. Under $950. Height and damping adjustable. It's a great comfortable street setups.

Vogtland Club Spec springs / Koni shocks. Under $900 setup, fixed height, adustable damping. Smoother comfortable, and still sporty enough for the aggressive street driver. Couple pics in my pic poster (black S4 parked on the street).
