Does anyone know if the Aitrek & Outlander have the same suspension system?

it's the same setup, so parts are interchangeable. the perfromance suspension for the aitrek offered in japan would fit the outlander....if you could get it here in the usa....

Rear system: http://outlander.kiev.ua/manual/Outlander_2.4_AT_MT/34.pdf

why not just buy a pro-kit from eibach.it lowers 35mm,but i guess the car will be even better in turns...i know im gonna buy one :P

do you have more to this car of those PDF files?

eibach discontinued selling the outlander lowering springs in the usa; likewise for arospeed. h & r in the uk does ship to the usa, but at like $100+ just to get across
the pond, i think i'll try polyurethane bushings first and see if that doesn't provide a handling improvement for a lot less money....

im gonna go for eibach pro-kit.
just asked the import firm here in norway what price i can get it for.have some discount there through work.i suppose its still available here since its on their partslist and pricelist

Eibach springs wont lower out turbo essentially (approx/ 15mm). But Greddy has DowMax that will give 30-35mms http://www.trust-power.com/06sus_spring/dowmax/index.html

E10-60-009-01-22
Front: 35 mm
Rear: 35 mm

35mms will be for non-turbo outlander. turbo is 20-25 mm lower than simple outlander. so you will have 10-15 mm lowering. but I can be wrong)

havent heard anything about it,if it is a difference.but i can always check partnumbers or so on.but then the sport will be lower too,it says in the name...

but even so,i guess the eibach's handle a bit better than stock.it is a pro-kit and those are nice :beer:

i have ordered a kit today,4weeks delivery...but i guess its worth waiting for :banana:

When you'll install it please post photos

pictures and measurement before and after lowering :57:

have just picked up the "turbo package" now,its the 2 exhaust's in the rear,new floor mats and stuff.

installing tonight :banana:

hello :beer:

i have now gotten the Eibach pro-kit,so will try to mount it one of the next days and get some pictures taken :57:

This Eibach is for what ? for Airtrek Turbo, for Outlander Turbo, or for the US non turbo Outlander ??

for outlander cu0w

All non-turbo 1st generation Outlanders sold in Europe are 19,5cm high. The turbo model is only 17cm. Agree with Barin. But anyhow, I am very curious about what will be the result of swapping original springs and shocks with those Eibachs.

My experience is, that the original suspension is good when the car is loaded hard. Means 4 passengers and full trunk of things. Holes in roads do not make you feel like on old horse-dragged wagon, the car does not tilt to sides.... But is still very firm and hard enough in corners. May be more of you can confirm this. If the Eibach kit can replace that load, it will be interresting.

i was supposed to install it on wednsday...but i got the wrong kit...the one i got was to an alfa romeo :blink:
but i am supposed to get the right one today,so ill measure the height on the car before and after.also take pictures of the eibach and original to see the difference(if it is one)...

ill try to fit it this weekend...

but on the height,i have i read somewhere in a brochure that it is 19,5cm on the turbo...must have been wrong then.

but we will see what the difference is :57:

ill update you as soon as possible!! :beer:

front: 35mm lower
back: 30mm lower

Hi there, Crazynor!

You did some kms on new springs and I am interested in your comments on the change in car behaviour. How did the handling and driveability change? What about car rolling to sides in cornering and how about comfort? Is the suspension much stiffer/harder on road holes, or is it the same or do you feel smoother behaviour? Please feedback :clap: Thanks
