Eibach for 3.2TL?

I dont have a 3.2 but I think ive read on this forum that there are no springs for the 3.2...correct? Well I stumbled upon a site that sells it. There is also another application for the 2.5 so I know they did not confuse the 2 cars like how most sites do.

Dropzone springs also have an application for the 3.2. I believe it lowers 2.5 in the front and 2.25 in the rear. It's very low but if you want that look then that's the way to go. The good thing also is that it only cost about $100 for the set of 4.

What's wrong with Dropzone? The only way we'll know how good those springs are is if someone tries it. I wouldn't buy Eibach's cuz they are overrated and ridiculously expensive imo.

I've used Intrax and Suspension Techniques before and they both were good but the Suspension Techniques were alot better. Of course it all depends on what you want, but any drop more than 1.5" will create a stiffer ride in your car. I could deal with it because I like the handling and ofcourse the agressive look.

Well if you're gonna spend $239.00 for Eibachs, you might as well go for a coilover set up. I'm not sure if Ground control has an application for the 3.2 but they do for the 2.5's and it's about $100.00 more at $339.00.

My friend had GC in his 94 vigor which is the same suspension as the the 2.5TL and I mean tha shit was slammed to almost 3"

Unfortunately I don't have any pics of my friend's vigor. He sold it about a year ago, but I will ask him if he stored any on his harddrive and I'll let ya know.

For the record, he had adjusted his to like 3" which really looked sick, but in reality GC can go as low as 4" if you wanted.

How low do ya really wanna go? IMO, I think a 2-2.25" drop should be good enough. Your whip would look really good and probably handle alot better.........just my 0.02 cents

Just to let you know also, I've tried the following lowering kits thus far.

Eibach
Suspension Techniques
Tein
Intrax
H&R

And of all of them, the biggest piece of crap I've experience was those Eibach's. They are a waste of time. They basically live off their name, and are grossly overpriced for what ya get. Not tryna impose on anyone here as to what they should buy, but I just thought I'd share my experiences with y'all.

A lil bit bouncy at times but they were fine except when driving on uneven surfaces. I would bottom out quite frquently driving on uneven roads.

I'm willing to bet you that even though that site lists Eibach's in stock for the 3.2s, that if you call they will not have them.

Eibach STOPPED making the 3.2 springs, I've talked directly to them.

Many sites still have them listed, and I can link you a handful of them, but the ones I've called all say they have been discontinued and they have none in stock.

Intrax is suppposed to release their 3.2 springs soon, however.
