Default Eibach Pro-system-plus on Ebay

So this kit on Ebay is about to end in two hours or so...maybe not enough time for a response here. It's going for cheap, it's missing the sway bars but I don't really care about that. The only reason I'm not bidding already is the part # for the kit goes to 05-09 V6's. I thought the pro-kit springs and the Eibach damper kit fit both GTs and V6's (?)

I don't think the sway bars are interchangeable, is that what makes the different part #'s for the kits? At this point it looks like I'm going to be scared off, so if you V6 guys are quick and are looking for a deal, there ya go.

Ok, I bought it, lol. $250 shipped for brand new pro-kit springs, and a set of matching Eibach shocks/struts. HOPEFULLY they fit my car, I guess I won't be positive until I can look at the stamped part #'s on each part. If they won't fit I guess I'll be re-selling...

$180 auction price, $70 shipping. Did some looking, I think I may have some springs for sale real soon, lol. Looks like the shocks/struts will be good, though.

I don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but I'm the guy who ran it up to 250. I'm glad you got it though. I'm more interested in the springs than the struts/shocks, just didn't realize it till after I bid. Sorry for running up the price

Ha, too funny! If I can't use the springs maybe we can work something out. Can anyone confirm the shocks/struts are the same for V6/V8 and the springs are not?

Eibach's website lists the V6 as 35100.140 and the v8 as 35101.140. So, you may have the incorrect springs. Or, maybe they will bolt up fine but the stiffness will be alittle less ???

I didn't even see that the auction said v6!

The springs will work on your car, but shouldn't be used. They are designed around the weight of the V6, not the GT, and will not perform properly.

Yup, I'm not going to use the springs. I'll flip them once they get here.
