I am searching for a set of racing beat springs for a 3rd gen! I would prefer used ones (any condition), but if I can't find any then I'll just get a set from a performance shop.



Thanks a lot, Nicole

Thanks vosko, You do like them? How much did they lower the car, front and back? I have heard that they are the best springs when it comes to the drop, is that true?

it lowered it .8" front and 1" back. you can get some big drop springs but they negatively affect handling. if you want it adjustable get coilovers and you can slam it to the ground



here is a pic from a few weeks ago
