[V8] More Spring Info

[quattro]

Mine is the 1516.140.  Its speced for the s4/s6 and lowers the car 35mm 
front and rear. The 1529.140 lowert the your car 1.3" in the front and 1" in 
the rear. The us equevilent to my kit is 1528.140, which lowers the car 1.4" 
in the front and 1.3" in the rear. I aquired my kit through jo hoppon motor 
sport a few years back. you can see a pic of how low the car sits

BTW If you want the german kit there are two available 1516.160 (for the 
5-speed s4/s6....I have this kit) or the 1528.140 (for the automatic s4/s6) 
both kits use the same rear springs 1516 002 ha. also, both kits drop the 
car 35mm front to rear(1.4")  Unlike the s4/s6 the v8's don suffer from the 
uneven drop fron to rear( at leat mine didnt). I believ this is why the usa 
kits dont drop thew rear of s4/s6 as much( only one inch). Spoke with able @ 
eibach 9512568300 ext154 and he assured me that he could still get both 
german kits. Also mentioned the h&r group buy......and he said he would be 
willing to do one as well. Personly  i think the eibach would be a better 
choice as they use progresive rate rear springs. BTW Im using my kit with 
bilstein sports.
