Nice! going to install my pro kit this weekend! hopefully been busy working on other people's cars for the past month. I've probably had the kit sitting on the side of the house for about a month and a half

okbobbo,
How is the ride compared to stock? Handling? What kind of struts did you go with?

1. The ride is firmer. You feel more road imperfections. The car feels tight and there isn't any clunking.

2. The handling is improved. I had to get used to not turning as early. The car goes where you point it right now.

3. The struts are stock. They were replaced by the previous owner.

Default Photo with Eibach springs

Taken this morning. Because these Eibachs were for the 300 which weighs 100 pounds less than the 400, the front appears to be a little lower than the rear. How does it look?

Eibach gave me the run around for my Celica too. Still got them and I gotta say...I love em. The only problem is that they rubbed me the wrong way with their customer service. I going with TEIN springs on my SC.
