Uhh, that kit is meant to fit a 4th-gen Eclipse. What makes you think that will work on a CSM?

The kit for a 1g Eclipse isn't gonna bolt right on either. You'll have to modify your shock towers because CSM's only use 2 bolts and DSM's use 3 bolts. If you're willing to make it work, it will work. colt200 on the forum did it to his car.

What's wrong with dsm lowering springs on agxs up front and gr2's with stock awd dsm springs in the back? I love it.

I bought my parts used, less than $200 into it all. Lots of dsms get parted out...

Those awd rear coilovers might end up being the wrong length, that's half your kit being useless.

Are you sure about these prices? I just bought a set of 4 gr2's for what you are quoting for just the rear from rockauto.

I didn't look into the front agx's because like a newb I bought all 4 before I knew what process was.

Are those DSM AWD AGX's or AGX's for a CSM?

KYB doesn't make AGX's for a CSM.

Yeap 1g awd dsm agx's up front. You have to swap your upper plates onto them from your old struts.
