    All the dropped rides are smooth. My question, is if looking for Eibach Springs, where is the best place to get them and do they have them in our Models (4cyl 02 Galant) or just get it with the Eclipse Model since our parts are similar?

    iirc they discontinued the eibach I4 springs. so you are going to have to get v6 springs if u want eibach. I made the mistake in ordering them and got my numbers all messed up.

    ^ I'm sure they can be found if you do a little re-search.

    I did the brakes on the Galant a few weeks ago, the bushings actually look in decent shape from what I saw. They don't squeak or rattle. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

    Good choice, that's what I have on one of the G's, nice ride and great stance.

    The other G is on Basic coils from Tein and might be in the direction of this setup for the sole purpose of getting that smooth ride again.

    Another question, is it true that the Eibach Springs for the Eclipse (01) will possibly fit the 8G (02) since we know that the 3G Eclipse and the 8G have the same suspension. I noticed the Eibach Pro Kit (#Part 6035.140) for the 01 Eclipse has a drop (1.6F / 1.4R). I already have the KYB-GR2 and next month, Im either getting the TEINS S-Tech (1.7F / 1.3R), but lately EIBACH I mentioned above has also made me look closer into them as well.

    Cool, thanks for the info on this... Either Eibach or Teins, I know it will be good for me and of course, both Teins and Eibach are good products. It will look nice....
