I know there are alot of people on this site with Tein S-Techs, maybe because of the price, but I'd be careful about putting these on my car unless you know a cheap mechanic or wanna do the work yourself, because Tein doesn't make this for the EP3 and it seems to me that there are a lot of people here with a knocking problems from these springs. Showstoppers also sells the Eibach sportlines and pro-kits and Sprint springs all for pretty cheap. But if you are sold on the Teins go here: http://www.showstoppersusa.com/accessories_tein.html

Alot of products are not made for each car. If they fit, they fit. Slap a different part number, or sometimes don't. The knocking problem can be caused by a number of things. To be safe be aware of all of them. And like another member posted, please do a search. Or look around. The info is here.

I understand that too, but the stock spring rate is 248F-440R and the S-tech is 157F-291R giving a lower drop but a "softer" spring rate, because it is not made for our car. It will give you a drop, but with less rebound and more travel (resulting in bumping noises). If you are completely sold on the S-tech, I'd go with the RSX version, 307F-492R. If you do, post how it works out too, because I'm also looking into RSX springs on an EP if I hear enough positive feedback. ShowStoppers sells those for $179.

Have you ever had a problem with them falling off the perches or anything? Coilovers scare me because of the extra parts, but then again I haven't heard anything bad about the Ground Controls... I might look into these too becuase most of the drops I've seen are a little lower in back than the front so the adjustability might be nice...

I got eibach. its nice till you get full coilovers

you're six years late

very true i would never get a product with no r&d on the product installed on the car. Seams like alot of companies justguess on what the best rates are for the car and pack and sell

What's the spending limit? Go with coilovers if you can get them. Or a spring and shock combo deal. That way the springs won't blow out your stock shocks in a month.

If you can install coilovers, you can handle the few extra parts.
