    i wouldn't reccomend it unless you want your car to bounce for like 5 minutes after you hit every bump. my friend bought a nissan sentra with cut springs and thats what it did. so annoying!

    Dropzones are cheap springs and everyone that I know say they ride like shit. I would not cut the springs at all. Do you have an 8g or a 7g?

    you'd be better off keeping the dropzones. you might want to consider getting springs that don't lower as much such as eibach and h&r springs.

    Get some springs for a 1995-1999 Eclipse rs/gs/gst they work just fine. The rear springs are a little low for some big wheels (19") Just try no to go with a real aggressive drop a 1.75 to2 inch drop in the front is good same goes for the rear!

    theres alot of lowering options for 7Gs.cutting springs should be ur ultimate last resort which i have never seen done.theres eibach[most trusted], intrax, H&R, sprint, list goes on.do some research on them. dropzones are like...$2 sneakers.they may feel "ok enough" but in the end everyones just gonna point and laugh.jk lol
