    I got Eibachs on my 7G. 2G eclipse and 7G galant suspension is pretty much the same. So you should search for 95-99 eclipse springs

    i considered eibachs for it...when the Intrax springs were out back in the day the eibachs were the other choice and it seemed like they were supposed to have rode better...i just know that on semi-decent road imperfections sometimes the car hits with a pretty decent interior rattling thud and im getting sick of it...the GR2's on it are about 2 months old but the ride quality has been the same since i installed them new...think the megans or tiens will make a noticeable difference and do they make em for the 7g?

    there are a couple on line companies tha sell 7g eibach pro kits, but they are around 230 - 260 bucks. 2g eclipse and 7g galant shocks and springs are similar, but not the same-the galant has wider bottm bed where the spring sits. But Id def go with eibach pro kit.

    yeah those eibachs are high...i wonder if they are WORTH the extra money...if the ride is close to or as good as OEM?

    keep an eye on ebay, theres always lots of deals there. I got my pro kit never used for 2g GSX from a guy for $100. It was a hell of a deal for me. Also dsm trader, dsm tuners ads.

    If my memory serves me well, there was a guy here JIP, and I was reading one of his old posts where He said he cut a coil off of the spirng and thr handling was fine and was lowered. you can look it up if you want to

    go for the eibachs...they are an excellent ride. When you are everyday driving they are very very civil. When you go carving the canyons, as long as you have good aftermarket shocks, they tighten up and handle like crazy. Mine is running the Eibachs with AGX shox and graphite bushings. The ride quality is execptional...I used to have skunk 2 coils and they were too harsh for LA roads. But the skunks handle like they are on rails. So if you have smooth roads and you have no problems with bouncing over minor bumps...go with skunks, other than that...eibachs
