You are not in EU... :-D

What's the part number you got?

I can't remember the part number as I bought them over 5years ago from Fensport (they installed them too).

Thank you for your help!

Definitely I will try Eibach pro kit, and maybe in the future upgrade with Bilstein B6 or some coilovers

Also Is the sway bar in the Eibach pro kit plus also the same that TRD is using ?

Thanks

I also heard that Eibach makes the North America TRD springs and antisway but not sure which Eibach kit they are comparable to. One lowers 1' and the other @2"? I used to know I forget that was seven years ago. Eibach was my aftermarket choice. I went with TRD because they might have a better spring rate & swaybar because of more testing possible by Toyota by Toyota engineers. I didn't care about adjusting them. I trusted their set up. 1" lowers plenty for me. It gives you the feeling that you are sitting in a real sports car than sitting in a sporty car. It enhances the car not change the car. While you are there, get the Bilstein B-8 shocks & Whiteline camber bolts. I did those and more Whiteline bushings and Cusco bracing when I did my suspension.

For those interested, this is the Eibach de page for 86 (strange address, but it's a redirect from eibach.de):

No ARB, too...

How much drop do you want? I would think that would be the main determining factor in which lowering springs to get.

FWIW, Swift BRZ Sport springs lowered my car about 30mm. Rates are well suited to stock PP Sachs dampers and well balanced at 3.8/4.5 kg/mm front/rear.

Note: combined with camber plates (which further reduce front bump travel), the lost front travel led to terrible ride as the fronts would bottom over the tiniest bumps. With the stock front strut top mounts, no problem.

Remember that not all camber plates reduce bump travel...most of them just raise ride height a little (some more then others). Your raceseng plates reduced travel due to their unique upper spring perch for OEM style shocks.
