While I agree..I believe that the OEM springs still outride Eibachs with
proper bars and struts. Im trying to not bring up performance, cuz other
than you, me, and one guy in Florida, I dont think anyone on this list
bothers with track use of any sort. Which is very very sad.
I'll see more interest from people in Dodge Neon clubs at a track (5-10 at a
time) than I ever have Supras..I think I saw -1- MK3 at a track day once in
the last 6yrs. And I go to a lot.
BUT..if you do wanna go Eibacks, use a PROPER strut, because a good strut
becomes WAY more important with a progressive spring than a linear one.
