Hi all Just received the Eibach pro kit lowering springs I had ordered and I have a couple questions for anyone who has them fitted? I had watched a load of videos on youtube before I bought them (mostly American owners) of people installing them on their 86's and almost all their kits has smaller bump stops and dust covers included in the box, but when I received mine I just had the springs in the box. I contacted the supplier and they said that they aren't missing form the box. So my question is do I need to perchance these separately, or do I need to cut the OEM ones? The box came with no instructions and I cant find any online. Whilst we're on the topic of the Eibach's, im looking to install 18 x 8.5J ET:40 wheels does anyone know if will I have fitment issues with them hitting the OEM shock body now the car is an inch lower? Many thanks (new to this forum and not sure if I posted this in the right place, so if not I can re-post if some directs me to the correct place lol)

TUNED UK / EIBACH 40MM LOWERING SPRINGS We are pleased to announce the development and release of the TunedUK / Eibach 40mm Lowering Spring We have been working with Eibach over the last 6 months to develop a 40mm lowering spring and after extensive research and testing we are proud to call this product our own. These springs have been made using Eibach’s extensive knowledge of spring design, featuring front and rear progressive rates to ensure maximum ride quality and comfort under normal driving conditions, but then when pushing on around corners, the secondary rate ensures improved handling and stability. These springs have also been designed to improve the aesthetics of the car, lowering the car by 35-40mm drop over the standard ride height, giving the car the stance it deserves. Each kit comes with its own tailor made bump stops, the ride is subtly firmer yet there is no compromise on comfort. Handling is improved and stiffer on corners, which makes for the perfect performance upgrade. Each kit is priced at £235.00 Inc VAT. However are offering all forum members a 10% discount this month @ £211.50 Inc VAT with FREE DELIVERY We also have an offer on fitting this month at £150.00 including a 4 wheel alignment!!! Call us now on 01244 683119 or email us sales@tuneduk.com

SOLD Ok I bought these as an experiment to try on my car but prefer the Tein Streetflex setup for now so might as well move these. They are used but in good condition with only minor marks from being fitted, I will include the shortened stock bumpstops I made for them although Eibach say stock bumpstops are fine to use, I tried both and prefer the shorter ones but either work fine so its your choice on install. SOLD Price wise I was thinking £50 if collected from me in Penrith Cumbria, I can post at cost as well just get in touch. Pictures of them taken yesterday after removing from car. Cheers Ian

Hi everyone I've seen a few forums to people wondering about lowering their GT86's/BRZ's. I've also had people watch this video and ask me further about how the car feels with these springs compared to stock. Firstly, the thumbnail to this video (which hopefully you can see) is after my car has had the springs fitted. Truth be told I measured the stock vs lowered height using my shoe rather than a tape measure haha. Also, the car corners flatter than stock, giving me more confidence in corners. I may make a future video with driving shots where I speak about this properly. Anyone of you with a lowered GT86 will ovbiously already know about having to slow down more than usual for a speedbump though! My car has been lowered 25 - 30mm at all 4 corners. Anwyways, enjoy the video

Hey guys, I've been a long to a few meets and taken the first few steps on my build journey so thought it was about time I put up a thread on here. I picked up my 14 plate BRZ from Subaru in Sheffield back in October, I'd been looking for a new (to me at least) for over a year and had driven just about everything on the market. After a bad experience with a Mercedes dealer on the A45 I was put for a bit, but on moving to Manchester back in August I really started to intensify my search. I'd had a soft spot for the 86 / BRZ for a long time and seen some awesome builds on line but avoided driving one for a long time, In the back of my mind I knew I'd probably end up buying one if I drove it. I managed to hold back from buying the first 2 86's I drove but on seeing the BRZ in WR Blue I was hooked. My first 'mod' if you can even call it that was installing a Brodit Pro Clip phone mount after seeing it being recommended on the forums - I would definitely second that recommendation to anyone who is looking for a mount. Holds my phone really securely and in a great position. Makes up partially for the shocking head unit in the BRZ.

Hi Guys, I am selling my GT86 so all of my mods have come off. Winter Tyres: Nokian WR A3 215/45 R17 91V XL. I put these on in November and have probably only covered 2000 miles, tread is approximately a good 6-7mm. looking for £250 delivered or £200 collected. I'm based in Guisborough but work in Northallerton and would be willing to meeting any buyers halfway to save on the cost & hassle of posting. thanks Mike
