You saved $200 but what have you done to ride quality, performance and safety. Even threaded collars can be had for $150 and you can raise and lower all you want. As for images read the top of the page in red the next time you post. Just click on the pic you intend to use, click properties and right down the URL. sometimes like with photopoint you have to add .jpg at the end of it.

im assuming your new to this right?
i thought you cut your stock springs, why did you put on an eibach sticker if you dont have eibach springs? and why would you pay for someone to make an eibach sticker? you can call them and get one for free

I got my intrax springs on today and the ride is soooo incredibly good. The only other eclipse/talons I have driven had sprint springs and the other skunk2 coil-overs. I think my intrax springs felt so much better. The ride is great and they lowered ~1.7 or so. I would gladly pay a the money to have a better ride and what not. Whats up with the eibach sticker...Are you joking?
