Hey guys, i am new to the site and new to colts and miraiges.
I was wondering if you guys could give me a hand here, i do realize that this could go in the suspension section but i am a newbie.

I was wondering what i would have to buy and from where to get a 1989 Colt 4 door a 1.5-2.0" drop. Any information you guys can give me would be great. And would other generation scoups and miarges work? thanks guys

I went cheap, i bought a whole ecplipse parts car to do the 61 to 63 conversion and took the eibach lowering springs off that. cut about a half coil off that and it gave me a gorgeous low look. I just don't know if you can get some other springs for cheaper.

Cut a half coil from the eibach spring you car must be SUPER slammed unless they were pro kit springs and then your car is just slammed thats way too low for these cars. IMO
