Would these Eibach Springs fit?

[coldo]

Hey all,

Just a quick question… would a set of Eibach springs for a 1.9 150 5 door hatch fit my 1.8 5 door hatch…?

[nelly452]

i would have thought they would.

[nelly452]

in fact they will.

They could leave the front of the car sitting too high.The 1.9 diesel engine must be about twice the weight of a 1.8 petrol one.

that was my worry...

There is a set on ebay which I was going to try and bid on but only if they will drop the car as normal...!

Physically yes, but the axle weights are at opposite ends of the scale, so you should not fit them to a 1.8.

oh well then... Shame...

there on ebay going for £60 with no bids at present.. A total bargin for someone looking to drop their derv lump...

on a separate note... where's best to buy them from? I know courtny sport and deam tweeks both sell them for example for arround £160'ish... does anyone know anywhere cheaper to get them from?

Vectra C 1.6/1.8
Vectra C 1.8/2.0T/2.2/3.2 Petrol
Vectra C 1.9/2.0/2.2 Diesel
Vectra C 3.0 CDTi
