it shouldn't take a few weeks for those to settle. maybe 2-3 days at the most but you should really see about getting an alignment sooner than later.

I personally went with the Eibach springs because I had them with my previous car and they were nothing but money! the springs with the sway bars was the perfect marriage

I like Swifts but the Eibach sway and spring combo seems good bang for the buck.

Swift/Koni/Hotchkiss are a tough combination to beat.

I guess that's a good price. Honestly, I do not think too much about the dollars. As I got older (and older) I have adopted the attitude that compels me to buy the best you can get. When I think Eibach, I think big, fat muscle cars for some reason.

I hear ya. I’ve grown up on quality not quantity. So I'm not new to the best that I can get. I understand where you are coming from . The Z deserves it. I feel the same way about K&N intakes.

Thanks for this. I was unsure if it was two days or two weeks. Ill schedule on as soon as I can. And I am with onzedge on this one, the swift / koni combo will be a hard beat!
