Will Coilovers from a FWD eclipse fit an AWD?

[CR1MSON FURY]

I was wondering because my friend has a GSX and he wants to install Coilovers that are from a FWD GS. So will this work or is there anything else he needs to do?

An AWD turbo weighs a lot more than a FWD non-turbo, it will lower it even more on the AWD then the FWD. It won't have a correct spring rate.

they will fit

They'll be fine, being coilovers you'll want to have a grinder handy though to grind down the silver ring on the strut.

Will they fit? Yes

Should you use them? No.

 

[CR1MSON FURY]

so your saying he will need struts with it? and why shouldn't he use them?

if they are those cheap ass coilovers OBX etc.. then they are the same for all Talon/Eclipse models. They didn't make them any different for the n/t vs. the turbo. Ground controls are different and you wouldn't wanna mix them but the other ones are all the same

Hell those cheap ass manufacturers share as many parts as possible. The Ingetra kit shares the same spring as the DSM kit does and they are completly different, only the perch is differnet. THey are brutal.
