i'm not a genius, but i think the engine doesnt matter when it comes to the suspension...

Well for springs it can matter on what engine the car has, since a car with a 4cyl would be lighter than one with a 6cyl. I believe you can find the ES250 springs for the V6 Gen2 and the brand i believe is Jamex springs. Check out this site, it's only selling them for $99 a set, but I'm not sure if they have any left since it's been on "closeout" for nearly a year.

You can use the Intrax springs. The front will just be a little lower compared to a 4 cyl. with the same springs cos of the heavier engine.

yeah, i know i can use the springs for the 4cyl model, but i'd rather have the springs for a V6 so the front's not lower than the rear. i'm a neat freak, and that just wouldn't set well with me. but if i can't get any others, then that's what i'll have to do. thanks.

With the Intrax springs the front is lower then the rear. Doesn't matter if its a I4 or V6.

I have em on my 4 cyl. with Tokico struts. I chopped a coil off the rear springs to kinda even out the drop.

I didn't even know we had lowering springs

Where can I get some, I'm putting on 17"s next week and I know I will need a drop of an inch or two.

As of right now the cheapest place to get them is from summitracing.com

$190 for a set of springs? I wish I can find some on ebay for like $100. I have a set of coilovers from my 93-97 ford probe, I think I may see if they fit. What do you guys think?

Do yourself a favor and get the right springs for your car.

Even if the coilovers from your Probe fit I wouldn't use em. Its ghetto / boro.

By the way Summit Racing kicks ass. Awesome customer service, no sales tax, and I get my sh*t in 2 days when I order from them.

OK, I guess then as soon as I sell these then I will pick those up, unless someone has a used set they are getting rid of.
