actually, i have been doing some proto work on parts for the new eclipse. Eibach has a headquarters in my area and I have some info on the process. They are currently testing springs on the car in the gt spec. they are thinking of doing some work on springs for the 4 cyl. but the suspension is about the same. Might see those some time soon like the CAI system from k&n

The eibach springs are already out. You can purchase them at www.truckperformance.com for $248.66 I spoke to a sales rep there and they are in stock and once ordered should arrive in 2-3 business days

I know Adammantrix ordered his and should be able to tell you how they are soon.

I have been seriously thinking about ordering the springs for the last few days, already ordered some aftermarket wheels and tires. Im just hoping it looks as good as the photoshop image i did with them and a drop. I should be able to post pics this coming week as well. :P

i just did some proto work at eibach on the 21st. they gave me some proline springs and I am VERY happy with them. The car handles alot better. I took it out in the canyons and handled like a champ.

Do you happen to have some pics to show how much of a drop they give? Sometimes pics are better than straight numbers.

Yep got the springs ordered and they were shipped out. They have spent the past 6 days in Mesquit Texas at the UPS terminal. Hurricane Rita has delayed the shipment.
UPS tracking says, "Delayed by Natural Disaster". Latest update...they will be delived today. I will take before and after pictures and have the springs installed on Monday.

Looks great. I have the same car, same color and all and I love it. Did you paint the brake calipers sunset pearl? If so, I would LOVE to know where you got the paint to match.
