I am getting ready to lower my 98 se with eibach pro kit 1.4 rear 1.5 fromt with tokico struts and shocks. is there anything that i need to have advice on before i do anything? let me know the ins and the outs. Also where can i get a service manual with everything in it for my car?

thanks for the help..

if you're just yanking the current strut/spring combo outta the car and replacing them w/ a new strut/spring combo, then it'll be pretty straight-forward. are you putting the motivational rear mounts on? if not, i'd seriously consider buying it. it makes a HUGE improvement, as far as ride in the rear.

also you might wanna grease up the thrust bearing on the front mounts.

if you're looking for a factory service manual (FSM), try doin' a search in the for sale section. i also think Andreas Miko can get ahold of them, but i'm not positive.

don't forget to get an alignment after you're done installing them. you'll wanna find a shop that works w/ lowered cars, so they can properly adjust the camber, castor and toe. or don't get the alignment and buy tires every 3000 miles...your choice.
