ECS Coil Over Kit

[audisnapr]

does anyone have any experience with the new budget ECS Coil Over Kit? I'm guessing for the serious tuner, these are pretty lame, but for someone like myself who already has the Bilsteins/H&R setup, it might be a nice addition. What do you guys think?

ha, i was just about to ask the same question.

[audisnapr]

do you have any idea how long they've been on the market... maybe they were just released?

I have them the quaility is very nice. No clucking. car rides the same as it did before I installed them just I can adjust my height now. Very easy to adjust the height too (they have course threads)

but aren't they only for the front!

nope... front and rear. and believe it or not, looks like the rears actually have a few more installation steps than the front.

[MR VTEC]

okay

anyone else out there running this setup... especially on the neg side of the fence? I already ordered it and should be in here by Thursday, but was hoping to get some more feedback before I actually do the install.

for anyone who's interested in seeing picks of the ECS coil over kit, here's a link to my other thread with pics

Sounds cool for those of us who have already invested in a spring/shock set. What I'm curious of is if the system is adjustable enough to have successfully corner-balanced their B5 w/ the kit? jwstampfl are U planning on taking your car to be corner-balanced after installation?

My car is currently corner balanced (w/driver inside) using the ECS sleeves.

H&R Race/Bilstein Sport.

Nice. can you comment on any subjective differences in the car after the corner balance?
BTW, I moved from Seattle recently, but who did the corner balance on your car?

[Numbersix]

Car was done in Denver, actually.

I'm raising it 1/2", so I'll have to look for someone to re-do it here.

It feels slightly more balanced, especially with my weight taken into consideration.

I don't see why not. Especially if others have done it. With a one-finger gap up front (running H&R sport springs w/ Bilsteins) I have 1.25" of thread left at the bottom. I doubt I'll go any lower than that, so they probably can corner-balance it without any problem.
