    I guess the general perception is that for this mod, you will need a rear camber kit. Not so. When I get home tonight and have the time, i will put a copy of the before and after wheel alignment readings, and this will illustrate that the camber kit isnt required and the settings go back to spec.

    I'm very happy with the setup, and anyone who has an MPS3 that has driven my car is completely blown away. Huge difference.

    Thanks mate,
    Im probably going to do this in around a month.
    Ive spoken with MPS Garage and they say what your saying, no need for camber kit or shocks.
    Id love to see the wheel alignment data like you mentioned, as this is my main concern. as the cost will add up by the time i get some adjustable arms with installation.
    Ill be painting my wheels black the week it gets lowered

    It does look like a lot nicer down that extra bit. I wish I could go for a bit lower but even a std height I get scrape at various places..Sydney is so terrible for it!

    The new stance looks unreal!

    Im thinking to having a set of Pedders SportsRyder lowered coils installed in my BL MPS 3.
    Does anyone have any feedback on this setup?

    Ride quality, ride height drop, etc etc?

    Recently checked out the Pedders Sports Ryders but after reading a few negative reviews about Pedders decided to order some Eibach Pro springs from MPS Garage.

    Negatives mostly related to cost and service at some Pedders store, not so much about the quality of the product (the quote I got from Pedders was for $400 for install and $110 for wheel align). Checked their website and other forums and appears a lot of their springs/coils etc cater for your holdens & fords. I suppose a positive in using Pedders is that it is an Australian product, (made in Melbourne I think) and after installation support if something does go wrong.

    Certainly a better price than what I was quoted for install and align. Unless others on forum have first hand knowledge of the Sports Ryders go for it. Dont forget some before and after pics once all done.

    StreetUnit is where I bought mine, you should get in quick while the AUD is so high. Enter the coupon code SUROCKS for 3% off, if that one doesn't work google for others. Have a look at other items too, shipping gets cheaper per item than separately (at least it was when I ordered my dashhawk and BOV).
    AP V3 (Rayd tuned) / CP-E CAI / CP-E TIP / JBR Trilogy / CS Front Strut Brace / JBR SSP / JBR Shift Knob / JBR shifter bushings / Eibach Pro-Kit / Bilstein B8's / SURE Juggernaught / SURE Dreadnaught / Whiteline RSB / Toyo Proxes T1R 235/40/18 / Evo X BBS rims / Turbosmart Dual Port BOV / CP-E DP / CP-E TMIC / Autotech internals / Superpro bushings

    Future mods:
    BT, DM OCC, EGR delete, Braided clutch/brake lines, Hawk HPS 5.0 pads, DBA T3 rotors....

    Excellent, thanks so much guys. I'll have a look.

    Much appreciated.

    Anyone here attempted to install springs themselves?

    Anyone know if the EIBACH Pro Kit springs get noisey over time?
    By noisey, I mean 'chattering'? Where the coils touch eachother.

    The coils should never touch each other, even under full compression. If they do it defeats the purpose of having springs

    Put my H&R springs in myself. It was ok. you'll need to get your hands on a spring compressor.
