Lowering a GT

Considering installing an Eibach Pro Kit and have a couple questions. As I understand it from the factory only toe-in is adjustable. What modifications have to be done to correct camber and caster if necessary? Also, by what amount is the rear axle thrown off-center? Anyone use an adjustable panhard?

I believe an alignment is necessary after installation, and an adjustable panhard and lower control arms are suggested.

With the ProKit do the rear coils first; the axle will go right (pass side) about 5/8". BMR has top quality adjustable panhard bar. Entire job on the rear is pretty easy and can be completed in under 2 hours (and that includes making fine adjustments and road testing.) I will say this after doing the rear, the stance of the car is perfect and the spacing between tire and wheelwell on all fours is about the same. I wouldn't want the front any lower. I feel this looks perfect and I don't want to compromise ride quality in the front suspension any; also I like knowing I don't have front ground clearance issues, especially a concern if a aftermarket front fascia is intended. ...hey just my opinion; I'm not going for the low slung road racing look. ...more the retro and straight line look.

You might want to consider getting a set of Tokico D-Spec adjustable shocks and struts. The ride can be a bit stiff without them. At least this is what I experience on my 05.

The adjustable panhard is on my list as well as the Eibach Pro kit. Thanks for the heads up on the shocks and struts but I will try stock at first seeing that the Sportlines drop a lot more than the Pro's I am planning on using.

You may consider a set of camber bolts. SPC has some listed and I found them locally for under $30.00.
