Ok, do these just bolt right on, and no other mods are needed? Or do you need to adjust the camber and get a camber kit????

With such a small drop I dont think you would need to adj. camber. If you were goin coilovers I think it might be a different story.

where did you get your pro-kit and how much did you pay? also, did you get an alignment? if so, is everything aligned properly. i remember when i had my eclipse's no matter what i did, if i lowered the car, the alignment was always screwed up and i would go though tires like crazy

You don't need a camber kit. alignment is recommended with any suspension modification. I still have these in stock !!

I don't see any reason why you would need a camber kit with such a small drop. You should always get an alignment after xhanging anything in your suspension (besides swaybars).


I took a bunch of pics and could write a "how-to" but if you read the manual, it is very easy.

I only drove it around the block that way, so no I didn't notice anything like that. I replaced these with JICs over 6 months ago, so I don't even use them any more. They just sit int he corner of the garage.

did you notice a large difference going from the lowered springs to the full JIC set-up?? could you explain how the car feels and if the JIC's are worth it, in your opinion?

thanks,

JICs are great. There was a substantial difference when going form Eibachs. The car had much less body roll and less understeer with the JICs.

They are in the garage. They're probably not worth me selling since they sell for ~$200 or so. Feel free to make an offer though.
