Bavarian Autosport Coil Over Suspension Kit

all8up · 03-25-2008, 05:50 PM

I'm no track junkie so take this with a grain of salt....
I have noticed ....the car recovers from bumps much faster than before therefore the rebound on the shocks are tighter than ZSP. I also notice there is quite a bit less body lean when I take fast turns, likely the product of having a lower center of gravity.

I've been pleased with the purchase so far and it is a relief that I am able to save some money to put elsewhere....IC & piggy back...

We'll after all the dileberation I decided to go with the Eibach Pro-Street-S Coilovers. Tirerack had them for $657, other sites are selling them $1000. They were close out and they had less than four sets. The reason that I choose the Eibach because the name is well known and more people are using them. I think the Bav coilovers are a good choice as well.

Papa13 · 03-29-2008, 05:51 PM

Nice another affordable set. Let us know how they perform Bulldog.

when you install coilovers you gotta do an alignment? if so usually how much is it?

LaYzEe · 05-04-2008, 01:47 PM

reviving an old thread but...has anyone else bought this kit besides all8up? I would like to hear more feedback from this setup!

fast_lap28 · 05-05-2008, 02:07 PM

I need to also upgrade my ZSP suspension in coming months and looking for an affordable setup but with solid performance...

Just wanted to let you all know that I didn't abandon this thread (since I started it)...anyway I have had my Eibach's in the garage over a month. I am so swamped at work that I can't get them installed until 9 June so I will update then.

$657 for a complete coil kit is awesome price. Please post pics after install. Thanks

Sorry Y'all, I've been working so much that I can't get the day off to get them installed. They've been in the garage forever. I am trying to get an appointment for 3 July.

It's finally complete. The look is great, totally looks like a different car. The handling is outstanding too; cornering is much better and I don't feel nearly as many bumps. I am definately satisfied. I will post pics tomarrow.

Papa13 · 07-04-2008, 02:24 AM

Nice. Excited for pictures

Amir87 · 07-14-2008, 12:48 AM

Updates???

Bulldog 6 · 07-14-2008, 05:06 PM

Well I tried to out wait the rain and it has been two weeks. I started an new thread so the Eibachs won't be tied to the Bav title. Here is the link:

Im confused by your post I didn't mix and match. I have coilovers also.
