Opinions Needed - Tanabe NF210 vs Eibach Pro Kit

genep · 10-08-09, 10:12 AM

seems like many peeps in this community are on tanabe springs. curious to know why many choose nf210's over eibach pro kit? trying to get all my research in before choosing between nf210/eibach/ or df210...

seems those that choose nf210's do so b/c the df's provide too much drop. however, the nf210's drop the gs 1.0" front/0.8" back while the eibach pro kit drops the gs 1.3" front/1.1" back. sort of a good in-between option when comparing the nf's and the df's... but just curious why majority chose not to install the eibachs?

thanks for helping a guy out.

Has anybody tried Swift springs? I heard good things about them. Their drop is similar to the nf210's.

tein s-tech is also a good choice w/ stock shocks imo.. drop is 1.4f & 1.1r.

i chose the nf210 because:
1) it maintains stock ride
2) just enough drop to give it a lowered look (not slammed)

it all really depends on what you want, and what trade offs you are willing to accept. for me, the nf210 fit my requirements.

nf210 is the way to go

just curious what is the price of the nf210 vs eibach?

genep · 10-09-09, 06:16 PM

eibachs are around $280 and the nf's are around $250.. so around the same price.

I have heard both positive and negative abut both brands. I had Tanabes on my Infiniti and they sagged. The eibachs I have never tried but I had friends with 350Z's who could stand them because they sagged and were made in the USA. Get coilovers IMHO. You will pay more but you will be happier

I'm thinking of installing Tanabes with 20's also. Would aftermarket springs void the factory warranty? How do the F-Sport springs compare to Tanabe & Eibachs?
