i wouldnt doubt that eibach makes the suspension, i wonder if you look up the part number thats on a MS spring or something it would come up with an eibach part number as well. Same for the intake coming up on aems site or something

Oh i thought aubrey already had the springs, which was why i suggested the MS ones. Just looked at original post, yeah i didnt read :P. Koni's was gonna be my next suspension setup.

I was told they are probably Tokico blues.
I got my springs yesterday.

Do yourself and your tires a favor and "invest" in a set of adjustable rear camber links too.
By dropping the car another 1"+, your rear negative camber will jump to over 2*, and you'll be wearing tires much faster.
I had mine dialed into -0.9*/-1.0* of negative camber/zero toe and my tires are much happier now. :D

I put a set of Tokico's on my ole' Honda many years ago when the OE's blew out. WHAT a DIFFERENCE in that car they made!!! I was still on stock springs though too, but it made the car handle and feel just that much better.

*edit* Hey, how's that Hyertech working out for you? I've been thinking about doing it, if for nothing else a better throttle response.
What's your take on it? Worth the money?

Id go with that reflash imo, there are rewriting the whole ecu code that disables the learning curve. its everything u get in hypertech unit but a better tune for bolt-ons, still undetectable and tested before shipped, only thing is you gotta ship out your ecu.

Thanks guys.
Virgin - I may look at Tokicos then. They'd sure save a bunch of cash. I'll look at the camber links as well. I thought I could get by without them with the ProKit. Also, I like the Hypertech. The biggest area you notice it is off the line. If you look at their torque curve it jumps way up and then follows stock fairly close.
Tracker - I like it cause I still have a warranty and I can set it back to factory before taking it in for any service work where they hook it to their computer.

I'm short on time this morning but I'm not sure Tokico offers shocks for the Mz3. I've never seen them. Our choices are rather limited.
