redzedturbo Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Hello im looking for a stiffer aftermarket spring set for my quest the po cut 3 coils off the stockers and it looks jdm as hell but is to low for where i live. where can i find a good deal on a set of eibachs (preferred) but the st springs i like the rates better but they lower to much. im looking for a 1'' drop. any input?

psu_Crash Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 I've had Eibachs and STs. The Eibachs are a progressive rate spring and the ST are a linear rate. It was easy to bottom out the rear with Eibachs, never with the STs. Eibachs also made the rear sag where the Sts on my car sit nice and even. The STs also handled much better for me. In my opinion the ST is a far better "performance" spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr-starion Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 X2! I dont like the eibachs!, they sag and bottom out, if you do go with eibachs youll have to think about going with stiffer shocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasQuest Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 JDM as hell lol. I have ST springs and like them, nice firm ride but not too stiff. They do sag lower in the rear but they are a good quality spring. They drop the car about an inch to an inch and a half and maybe two in the rear. Eibachs have been discontinued and are very hard to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikoFab Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Or you could go coilovers http://www.starquestclub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=135922 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squrlsquash Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 (edited) oh niko fab, you sell all the things we want but we are all too poor since we spend all our time/money keeping 80's cars going Edited March 29, 2013 by Squrlsquash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redzedturbo Posted March 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 (edited) LOL thats the truth we have spent almost 600 in parts and this 86 still does not run right! Only when it wants to anyway. Funny thing is when it was perchased it was drove hard for 120 miles home and has not been drove since due to electrical issues. see other post by me and doctor_drift you could possibly have the answer!!!! Who has a good deal on the st's on the web? where did you buy yours? Edited March 29, 2013 by redzedturbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasQuest Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Cheapest place I've found so far:http://www.yourhotcar.com/product/list/Chrysler/Conquest/Suspension/Lowering_Springs/I noticed Summit Racing doesn't have them anymore so I bet they've been discontinued.
