Spring Question

What do you think are better for a small drop and improved handling, not to drift-spec though more like drag, Tein S-Tech or Eibach Proline? These would be going on a 1995 s14 chasis.

I am going to say go with Eibach springs. They are the better ones and sportlines give about 2" of drop

I like my Teins, and I've tried Eibach's before. Both are good - if you're draggin check the specs and pick the stuffer one - but expect to hear more noise during daily driving

Road noise doesn't bother me at all. My car is too loud as it is, I managed to get 6 10s inside my 240 with ease, and then i have full header back exhaust, hotshot and 5zigen so it is pretty loud inside the car anyways.

lol the 10s will be coming out when there is a local buyer and i can figure out how to get them out. 3 are almost completely unseen, and 2 are molded into the rear panels. I just haven't found a local buyer, need a 240 owner with s14 chasis otherwise the boxes are no good

For drag I think both Tein and Eibach have custom spring rates for that application.
