Thinking of this setup, let me know how u think it will work...

[awddsm95]

Im in the process of accumulating all my suspension parts. The setup that I plan to run on my 95 tsi awd is as follows:

Stock 16" gst wheels
225/50zr16 tires
kyb agx shocks/struts
eibach sportline springs

I am pretty confident that this setup will work well from my research, Im just curious about what you all think. Thanks for the input

also, will i need any camber adjustment with the sportlines? they say the offer a 1.8 inch drop all around

Yes, you need camber correction. Do the 15$ camber mod forthe rear, and buy a kit of your liking for the fronts.

Just info from what I have found. This came from Road Race Engineering's web site.

RRE:
"We don't recommend the AGXs for the 2G Eclipse, the 2G front shock body length is too long for car that are lowered at all. If you really want them, we can special order you a set."

"Tokico Illumina 5 Way Adjustable Shocks
These are our favorite for the 2G Eclipses. They are less harsh than the GABs or AGXs and more adjustable than the Konis. There is a 5 way adjustment at the top of the shock for both the front and rear shock for convenience. Turing the adjuster stiffens up both compression and rebound damping. Eclipse and Talon. Guaranteed by Tokico as long as you own your car."

May be something to look into.

"We don't recommend the AGXs for the 2G Eclipse, the 2G front shock body length is too long for car that are lowered at all. If you really want them, we can special order you a set."

there's a revised part number that's been out for a few years now

my bad

i guess someone needs to updated their website.

Also, if you search their site as well as others, NOBODY runs Sportlines. They drop is actually 2 inches and bottoms out on everything and jars you around on daily driving. I think you should do some more research and find something better suited for the car:

-Your shock choice, despite the revised number, isnt optimal for the 2G
-Your rims are very heavy for sixteens and look like ass
-Your springs are really low and will cause a harsh ride

I would look at:

-Tokico Yellow shocks
-Some nice light wheels (5Zigen or Axis)
-Tein S-Tech or H&R springs
