Im trying to decide which springs to get. Jeggs has some eibach kits left but I have h&r on my s2000 which I love. I wouldnt mind getting h&R again becuase the cornering was really improved but the ride is like stock. Not bouncy at all. I think the drop is 1.5 on H&R and the eibach is 1.2. Can anyone coment on the ride quality and handeling of both? Also will there be any alignment issues? I will be on stock struts and 17/18.
 
Any time you change the height of the car it will change camber and toe. So you should get it re-aligned after you install the springs. I have ridden in NSX's with both of those brands and I found the drop and ride to be superior with Eibachs. H&R is too low for the NSX and you will be scraping everywhere. I however still think the Comptech springs are the best lowering spring option for the NSX. My NSX had them when I bought it and I think the drop (~1") is perfect. They sometimes become available in the marketplace.
 
I agree with Honcho on the H and R's. Drop results in lots of negative rear camber, looks crazy. Ride quality not bad with stock shocks, handling improved on the street no doubt. - but i'm now looking for other options as well - its just too low and it eats up rear tires every 3-5 k miles.
 
I have Eibachs and love them.
