Eibach Sportlines or H&R SS on my Mach 1

dannyboy281 · February 9th, 2012, 01:12 AM

Hey guys I wanted to see what you thought would be a better stance the Eibach Sportlines or the H&R Super Sports. I had H&R SS on my 04 GT and liked them but the ride was rough with Tokico HP's. I want to get it pretty low but but also dont want to have it as rough as I did before. I will be putting camber bolts from either Steeda or Eibach instead of MM C/C plates like I had because I dont want to drill my strut mounts and since this is my daily driver I dont need an aggressive set up. I wanted to see which will drop my Mach more between the two. I currently have a set of Eibach Pro Kit springs on there that have only 1000 miles on them but I want it a bit lower like my 04 GT was.

Look into Votglands. I had some on my Mach. Perfect stance and it rode GREAT! Lots of Mach 1 guys on the Mach 1 registry board use them.

H&R Super Sports without Iso's for that killer stance.

Where do you order them from and what kind of drop would I see with them?

I like the H&R SS but I dont think I want to run them without Isos because I hear they squeal alot. I liked the way they looked on my 04 GT but I didnt like the way they felt on the road. I had Tokico HP's, Granatelli LCA and MM C/C plates on them along with Poly isos.

Here is a thread to give you an example on drop. Mine was very close to the same.

I LOVED my H&R's on my GT...I put sportlines on my Mach because I heard they lowered it a little more, well it didn't work for mine...and they ride like hell compared to the SS springs..I say H&R all the way

JSNWDMNN · February 13th, 2012, 08:30 PM

I am sure this is an old post. The sportlines are not the best option for the car. It seems like the Eibachs do not have the desired look when all is said and done on the Mach 1, and 03-04 Cobras!

Do what swervo did

I have sportlines. Check em'

ModdedMach · February 13th, 2012, 10:19 PM

I have sportlines, idk if id wanna go any lower, i have to avoid speed bumps to save my lt headers and x pipe from scraping, sportlines to me are perfect, they look good, are nice and stiff, and its eibach, hello? lol

I also heard sportlines go lower than h&Rs idk tho, sportlines are 1.7 all the way around, probably a little lower once they settle and also if you leave out the isos.

Im partial, i love eibach. I think worrying about ride quality when you are lowering your car is like worrying about gas mileage when you buy your blower lol. I dont think the ride on eibachs is that bad, but ive never has h&rs so i dont have much of a comparison.

H&R's with no iso's ftw

Thanks man I got some brand new ones from a member at Mach 1 registry for $190 plus $15 to ship. I also picked up some steeda camber bolts. Do you have cc plates also did you wrap electrical tape on then ends to prevent squealing and did you remove all the isos or just the tops or bottoms also did you leave the rear isos in?

I am not running CC plates, camber is out a bit, but the toe is bang on. I removed all the iso's completely, I did not wrap electrical tape on the bottoms. So far I've put on over 3,000 miles and there has been no noise whats so ever

Wow I would be afraid of un even tire ware and the struts going out as well as noise in the future. I might try the fronts without the isos and see if it helps a bit.

If anyone is interested in the Eibach Prokit springs I have in right now they only have 1000 miles on them I am selling for $190 as well.

Mach1dmb! · February 28th, 2012, 03:48 AM

Looking forward to seeing your stance OP. I bought the super sports too, haven't installed yet. Does anyone have a pic of super sports with x2 balljoints without the spacers, and with ISOs in? Haven't decided if I wanna go no ISOs

STEEL_DAGGER · March 20th, 2012, 02:30 AM

Sorry about reviving this post , but I have sport lines on my mach . They do ride a little rough ,but i do have stock struts and shocks .
