Like the rest of you, I thought that Eibach Q4 springs weren't available any more, however I've just stumbled across this http://www.revolution.eu.com/erol.html#16613x0&&http%3A%252F%252Fwww.google.co.uk%252Fsearch%3Fq%3 Dalfa+156+q4%26hl%3Den%26lr%3Dlang_en%26safe%3Doff %26start%3D10%26sa%3DN

The website has a .eu.com extension, so is obviously pretty new. Just wondered if anyone has ever used them before.

In an atempt to get round the Eibach spring problem, I've just mailed eibach to see if they could do a short run of Q4 springs. Fingers crossed everyone.

Mine came with a sticker saying "Dedra" on it incase it helps with the search :)

Just been checking, the Q4 and Dedra Integrale springs have the same part numbers, strange thing is though they have different weight ratings??? The Q4 springs are rated 1060kg at the front, 970kg at the rear, the Dedra are 975kg both front and rear!!!
Typo I guess.

Lastest news on the springs isn't brilliant, but not a total blow out.

Hello Steve


You are correct, these are discontinued. The last time we had any was in
2004. We have none in the UK and nor are there any in our factory in
Germany. I have sent an email to our importers around Europe to see if
there are any sitting about. If I get a response I will get in touch with
you.


To do a short run is not commercially viable as we need to make a minimum of
50 kits.


Sorry that it is not more positive.

Best regards,

Julian Gill
Eibach UK

If I hear back from him I'll let you all know.

Steve
