    98 eclipse n/a

    sup fellas, have a few questions to ask
    my brother picked up a 98 eclipse GS n/a a few months ago and its finally running after a bad head gasket, and now hes wanting to lower the car
    i told him i look into it and see, since im to busy with work, i figure i ask here if any has done it,

    so far we are going to use eibach prokit and stagg struts, i just dont kno if im going to need a front /rear camber kit
    plan is to buy what we need before we do the install and this is the only question i have before we start

    thanx again

    Well springs are the best but its a start. Problem with springs you might not need a camber kit

    the prokit with some Gr2s would be a good combo and probably will not bring you out of spec far enough to need a camber kit. I am lower than the pro kit will put the 2g and i did not need a camber kit, but i did it cuz i plan on D2s and going lower later on.

    Thank bro I ended up with a i4 prokit for my galant last yr, to find out it was the wrong kit and it was for the jdm spec, Iirc the jdm spec had the same suspension as the 2g here in the states.

    no problem just remember to get it aligned right after doing the suspension and if its barely out of spec dont worry but if its way out you know what you need.
