| Opinion on lowering please Hi everyone, im Joe and im new to the forum. I am currently waiting on the delivery of my new GP T-jet and am just wondering what is the best way to improve the handling and lower the ride hight a little. I've heard Eibach mentioned alot, and also there are springs on novitec. Whats the differents between springs and coilovers? Thanks

Coilovers replace the whole spring and damper assembly with a single adjustable unit which means you can go lower, set the damping rates (depending on which coilovers you go for) and have far superior handling to spring lowered cars. Springs are just a repalcement spring that will lower the ride to a predetermined height with a stiffer set up. handling will be improved but don't expect shocks to last more than a few years (mileage dependant) I hope this helps, I must be in a good mood today.
