I like the fact the eibachs are progressive, and that's always put me off coilies. Never know, I'm getting old... Might like the more comfy ride To make you feel better, after my Accord, my BMW, on Eibach springs and rear Bilstein B8 shocks, feels great and comfy!!! Wouldn't change em for coilies! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Comfy all the way for me now, just don't like cars where you feel every bump. DD is nice and comfy now since getting rid of the Meister's. Trade off is the ride height but I can laugh at speed bumps and kerbs now without worrying about the scrape. Much nice drive imo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Yeah people often said to me meisters feel like OEM comfort. They really don't quite crashy imo. When she gonna be back on the road? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_broon Posted September 24, 2020 Author Share Posted September 24, 2020 Well, got a call today saying that the battery was goosed, so nearly ready for starting the engine. Longest thing to wait for now is the replacement goodridge hoses, which might be 2 more weeks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_broon Posted September 24, 2020 Author Share Posted September 24, 2020 Bummer thing is that the battery that's in was brand new when I drove the car last.... About a month old yuasa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_broon Posted September 26, 2020 Author Share Posted September 26, 2020 All that's left now is to finish hooking the exhaust up, fit the goodridge hoses when they arrive, fit the skunk LCAs after they've come back from the engineering company getting the bush adapted so the shock fits over it. Then it's windscreen swap, paint and done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
