i thought about raising the rear end a tad on mine....so a #2 pad for the rear should work perfect. what do you think? a full tank of gas and a driver...upon acceleration she drops way down in the rear.


(pic...full tanks w/ no occupants)

 

I think making my ride like that would cause some serious internal damage to my organs with the roads around wisconsin. As it is I second guess driving the Crossfire instead of the Saturn to work.


Andrew, where did you end up getting the clear front side lens. I know there are a few posts about this, but last I heard it was around $100 through a company in Europe. Was hoping for cheaper and from US.

 

car still has the ride of stock crossfire...just a lower ride height.

ctd-germany.com is the only place to purchase the clear front lenses...i paid over $100 dollars shipped. the lenses are not available in the US.

 

Andrew,

Here is my right after I install the Eibach:

Maybe after few weeks, will settle(might drop more).

When you take out your spring, on top of the spring it will have pad. Look at the number of notches on the pad. Those are the number of the spring pad. Starting from there, you can add a thicker pad.

 

pnsji...thanks for the input!

 

Does Eibach have a kit for the '05 Roadster convertible.

 

same part number as coupe kit.

If you are in bay area and need help with installing the spring, I could do it for $150

 

I was told from a vendor that the Roadster springs were not avaiable till March. He wanted 350.00 to install them and align the car when he gets them. He was unsure of what Pro Spacers to use after the lowering too, any ideas?

I'm in So Cal. any other ideas fof who to go to for installation around here?

 

Are you in so.cal? try eurorev. mine were $350 installed.

 

I'give them a call. Did you add the Pro Spacers for your wheels? Did you use the stock spring spacers?

 

spacers? do you mean wheel spacers? to move them out like 1/2 inch?

 

Yes, the wheel spacer. I heard they make the car look better

 

they have them too. do you have new dust-free brakepads?

 

No not yet, the car is only a few months old, I was going to install when I wear out the others pads.

 

Save alot of cleaning and change at same time only 80 bucks.

 

this could take years. go for the pads now...and enjoy your spare time.

 

so how thick is your spacers? front? back? and does it rub at all?

 

no rubbing ever with spacers. 12 mm rear & 10 mm front. completes the look imo.

 

kewl Thanks! I will need spacers for my new wheels.
