lowering eclipse gst
I was wondering if anyone has pics of a 2 inch drop on the front and back to see how it looks lowered
Does anyone know of a cheap place to get lowering springs struts and a camber kit???
thanks [:-]

RE: lowering eclipse gst
I would consider the profile of your tires aswell and the road conditoins you drive on. I have seen some people just drop an inch with really low profile tires and it looks insane. They also had aggresive body kits to help. Just heads up because some have gone the 2 inches and then put the tires on and they were scraping. Good luck with the desicion, anything will look better though

thats a 2inch drop eiback sportline, a bit too low if you ask me

1.3inch eiback pro kit . I have the prokit myself, and sometimes they are almost too low but look nice.
go for the spring if u just want the looks but if you really want handling go with shocks first like tokico illuminas or both if you can afford it

RE: lowering eclipse gst
The previous owner lowered the suspension on this 96 Eclipse. I'm not sure how much of a drop it was, but I guess it was the 2 inch. The pinch weld up inside the rear wheel well keeps slicing the tires.
It has 18 inch low profile and to me the drop looks bad. The gap between the body and the tire is very uneven. Huge gap between tire and body at the front and rear, but no gap at the top. The tire is up inside the wheel well.
The slightest bump in the road bottoms out the car. I suspect this was the cause of the bolts in the trunk lid wing breaking.
There is a 96 Eclipse hatch back in my local salvage. Will the rear struts/springs fit on a 96 Convertible spider?
Hatchback and Convertible same part?
If anyone has lowered there suspension and has the original rear struts/springs they want to get rid of, let me know.
