i know its ghetto, but it will only be for a temp basis (so im not looking for any "just wait comments, please just answer if you know!!!) till i get my new struts and coilovers, but what is the coil to lowering ratio?? for example: if i cut 1 full coil how much of a drop will it be???
:shock: Hey man, check out this link:
http://www.autosportz.com/suspension... your results.
I am not that sure Concept... But at mine opinion 3-4 coils cut is the maximum you can go with stock springs and stock shock absorbers...
Stock springs are much softer and if cutting them you "must" redone your shocks (renew them)...
I'd go with whitelines, but man - they are expensive as hell :?
well actually since this is my 'Project' car now, it is parked so i went ahead and cut 3 coils in front and back and it sits LOW, looks good, but i am going to install a set of KYP AGXs and Ground Control Coilovers, but i also am going to swap a 4g63 cyclone engine into it(mines shot) so i dont know which way im headed first handling or power??? i am still doing a lot of research first though, thats how i have come accross so many parts and websites!!!
I've heard that 1g eclipse springs will work on our cars. I hope so tho because i just order a set.
1G Eclipse springs will work, but you must get the right ones. If you have AWD Galant - you must get springs for AWD T/E/L and then cut 1/2 to 1 coil in front to get it even. AWD Galants are heavier becouse of the rare diferencial, so if Eclipse is lowered by 1.2 inches, Galant will drop about 1.5 inches.Quote:

:shock: Rasko - Does that mean 1g FWD T/E/L springs would work on the 6g FWD Galant? If so, what's the drop? I'm always looking for the cheapest reliable option.
yes they will like he stated 1/2" to 1" will have to be cut so the spring will fit right!!!
