I was wondering what are some fairly stiff springs or coilovers for an eclipse that don't cost to much, maybe around $200? Are goldline springs good? Will they work well with Tokico Illumina Gas Shocks? And what about Weapon-R Super Tuner or Curcuit Pro Coilovers? I Hear that they are really bouncy.

if you get springs i strongly suggest that you get the struts too. Ebay is definetly good for that. I know that emonz had the goldline on his eclipse and they worked very well. But he had them ni combination with kyb struts. So i dont know how well the tokico's work

If you get coilovers do you have to get struts? .. I thought coilover kits came with everything? I'm looking into buying some stuff for my 97 eclipse as well.

And are these types of eBay items a waste of money? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/95-99-MIT-MITSUBISHI-ECLIPSE-COILOVER-SPRINGS-98-97-96_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33582QQitemZ8062527709QQrdZ1
