i'll tell ya what i tell everyone else. I believe lowering springs and struts are the best bet. Alot cheaper and easier. You wont have the adjustability but the cost will be 3-400 dollars less. And you will still get a nice stance. For brands im partial to eibach on springs but if you want something cheaper then Tein is decent as well. And for shocks i would look into either Tokico Blue's or an adjustable strut like tokico illumina's or kyb AGX's

I'm with teh engineer on this one. Struts and springs will save you some dough. Save coilovers for track racing and such.

Eibach doesn't make a kit for the galant,neither does Tein.Any other models/years that will interchange?

Well,after a lot of lookin'...including Eibachs website...I think i found a set of Eibachs,for 219.I only ask post this because I'm curious.Why wouldn't Eibach have these on their site?Tein says they have fakes out there...so,i wonder.These aren't on ebay neither. http://www.DoctorImport.com...Any thoughts?
