Hey Josh, good job doing all that suspension work which is dirty and even a little scary sometimes. Those 2 shops in Everett, I'm kind of amazed because I lived in Everett for several years and I don't think there was anything like that there at the time. There was a good alignment shop in Bellevue at one time that did good chassis and suspension work on my Talon. They put H&R springs and KYB struts on it for me, and lots of other stuff. But that shop has gone downhill since then I think. Thanks for showing that clip at 22:57 because I didn't know 425 was doing stuff like that either. But Speedware had an awesome shop that did high-end fabrication work on people's race cars. The guy that runs 425 was the shop lead man at the old Speedware that was in Bellevue. It looks to me like he is turning 425 into a reincarnation of Speedware, which I'm glad to see. He is the guy who told me way back in about 2005 that my Talon would be able to pass Washington emissions without a cat. I wasn't even a customer of theirs, I just called them on the phone with some questions. Really enjoyed the Kirkland lakeshore scenes! #family

Really good review and install. Thank you. I have those on my VB. Looks amazing. Corners like it's on rails. Not overly bouncy. Unless you hit a bump or a pot hole at higher speeds. It hurts! They will settle quite a bit. Ride height is actually perfect. Not too low to cause scraping, but low enough to look more aggressive. I've had mine for about 4 months. After all said and done. Good if in a pinch. But I'm definitely going to be upgrading to full coilovers for comfort. Either the Revel Touring or Cygnus Comfort. So just a little regert. IDK if H&R would be better. My guess is it's not. Though both are German companies, Eibach are made in the USA!

@JDMRightHandDrive

The ride is a nice improvement over stock springs, gets rid of the bounciness on the freeway. Does better at soaking up bumps at speed. Still feels stiff like stock springs at low speeds in the city. Not to mention the have the ride height of the car lower makes the car looks so much better. I would definitely recommend these. You will love them. Thanks for watching.

Would you recommend getting the adjustable toe arm for the rear? What about an adjustable front swaybar end link? I see many of the coilover kits come with one.

@JDMRightHandDrive

If I could redo it, I would install the toe arms at the same time. Nick was still able to get the alignment into spec with the stock toe arms though. He just said for this set up it would have made sense to get the toe arms for the best suspension geometry and that the oem ones left us somewhat limited. Good question and thanks for watching.

After a month and the springs have had time to break in and settle a bit, I think the suspension feels awesome. It feels more planted with high speed handling.
