hey i just picked up some 18" chrome cobra r's for the t/a and i was thinking of going wiht the sportline kit (1.8" drop) is that gonna be to low will i need a adjustable PHR or anything liek that? Please let me know thanks

 

WTF!!! Cobra R's on a T/A??

o well to each his own...but to answer your question....i would just get smaller drop springs. I have a 1.25 drop and the tires scrape on some bumps

 

i know i know cobra r's they look great though...

 

With that much of a drop it'd be smart to get an Adj. PHB and reloc. brackets.

Good luck

 

i have sportlines on my 95 ta with 18's....rides fine. Cant even tell its dropped. Be sure you have good shocks and youll be straight. Just watch the speedbumps.

 

speedbumps! arch enemy of the eibach sportlines! i quite driving mine on base cause i was sick of dragging the plastic temporary speedbumps they have.. im ditching my sportlines to get some hotchkis 1" lowering springs soon...

also, mine are so damn bouncy.. i have read a couple of places that the sportlines are actually more bouncy than the pro-kit... any truth to that?

when it all boils down to it tho, i absolutely love the way my car looks with those springs..

 

cool thanks guys...still kinda mixed up but the help is apprecated

 

the bouncy ride is because of shocks....get a good new set and it will ride like a dream. I think mine actually rides better than stock with no bouncing and one heck of a better back road handling

 

got any pics? I would love to see that set-up

 

ill try to get some soon, its in the shop getting the new paint job and some fabbed parts. Ill post them as soon as its done

 

sportlines are LOW

I had them on my Z, and i couldnt put my hand in between the tire and the wheel well...

 

I have sportlines, and my car is bouncy. I need some new shocks bad. I am 100% positive that the car will be MUCH better with new shocks. After the spring install, I have had so many compliments on the car. It looks so mean with my 17x9.5" fittipaldi's. I also upgraded to an adjustable panhard bar, control arms, and relocation brackets. Personally, I wouldnt lower an f-body without doing the other mods along with it. Traction was so poor before the control arms and brackets that I could spin tires, and hardly leave any rubber. There was just no weight transfer to the rear suspension. So save your pennies, buy it all at once, and enjoy
