Blistein B12 Pro Kit (w/ Eibach springs)

[Hujan]

I stumbled across this kit the other day:

I'm wondering if anyone has an experience with this kit for their E89? If not, any experience with these kits on other platforms (e.g., E85/86)?

My goal is to achieve a very mild cosmetic drop and a slight increase in performance (namely more steering precision and less body roll) without a decrease in ride quality. The car will not see much in the way of track duty so I can't justify coil overs. The price is right on these and I'm wondering if they would harshen the ride too much or would be just the ticket. Thoughts?

I wonder if adaptive suspension will still work with this mod

Hey OP, a LONG time ago I tried Eibach pro kit springs in an integra and found them to be on the soft side (which is a tough combo when the car is lowered as well). I ended up replacing with H&R OE sport springs, that were a mild drop with a higher spring rate.

my GUESS is the body roll will be similar to stock, since the website mentions "soft" and "Comfort"

For a pure cosmetic mod, I think matched springs + dampers is definitely the way to go, and this is probably as cheap as it gets for a new part.

Another option would be to get a used set of coilovers from one of the other forum members here....

For the price of the kit, you're better off contacting Harold at HPA and looking into a set of AST 4100 shocks with swift springs IMO. I had the Eibachs on for exactly 1 week before I pulled them out and replaced them with the AST/swift combo.
