I was able to get them both installed in about 2-1/2 hours last Friday night after work. I'd recommend having a good breaker bar. Would of been a lot less time if it didn't take me as long to figure out what to use on those dang nuts.
Took it out for a spin after the initial install. I really wanted to find out if my biggest complaint about this car's handling had been resolved. Namely, the ability to recover when the tail end came out. Found a good, left hander to test it out on. No cars and 4 lanes to give myself lots of room if something went south. Nice pitch and smooth recovery, no fishtail. Awesome, but did I just get lucky or was the car finally working right? Found another spot and tried it again. Yep, the car feels good now.
Sunday I took it on a nice windy road near by. Hicks Rd. in San Jose. It's not the smothest road so it would be a good test for the suspension. It's mostly 2nd and and an occasional 3rd gear. The Eibachs really perform on the transitions. (R to L or L to R) A lot less body roll than before. Feels almost flat. Normal driving feels about the same.
Overall I'm really happy with the change in handling characteristics. Great upgrade for those thinking about it.
