Eibach Springs

Does anyone know where I can find a set of these? I just got off the phone with shox.com, and they've said the springs were discontinued.

Check eBay

When I was looking for some Eibach's a few months ago there were several sets on there for about $240ish

Or here http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/de...1&apwidW7EC56H

K, just contacted autopartswarehouse.com, they're out of stock even though the web page claims they have some. Will GR-2s work fine with B&G springs, and would I have any problems with that much of a drop?

May have found a set, waiting on a reply. Anyone know if B&G springs are fine with GR-2 struts?

I dont see why not.. B&G's were right around a 2 inch drop all around iirc...Gr-2 is a decent strut but since you cant get what i got anymore(koni reds) then i would go with tokiko for sure,,,

Oh man, the temptation to part out my Maxima is getting stronger and stronger. I've got a set just sitting in the garage that I haven't put on. I was in the middle of the Koni swap with Eibachs when some family issues came up. I haven't gotten back to my Max since.

BTW, you'd have to take up buying those with my wife. Because she'd kill me if I parted with anything from our Maxima.

go with koni's if you want B&G springs, the gr-2's wont stand up to the 2inch drop, tokico barely did in my opinion, koni is the way to go, i have koni and b&g and its and very nice ride

Ended up buying tokico/eibach setup from my cousin. Had to replace the rear left caliper due to it locking up on occasion, but the parking brake cable is too tight to get back on (something in the front cable/handle area snapped, so it's useless anyway), where's a safe place to zip tie it? :P

i tried to order Tokicos off of Ebay, the seller said they had 3 sets in stock 3 weeks ago and they were suppose to be here last week, they emailed me a few days ago saying they just found out Tokico discontinued them and i got a refund because they never had 3 actually in stock. they had Konis for $700 and would substitute if i paid the extra $300 but right now i need money for my engine work being done next week so i have to wait until i can find someone who has Tokicos in-stock and i have Ksport springs collecting dust in my basement now

i could have got the Konis but it would take them a month to get to THEIR warehouse, plus 2 weeks to get to me so im not waiting until September to get dropped

shox.com has Konis for $500 with free shipping, ask if they have it in stock though.
