    Locating Springs

    Okay so I got the ZX2 struts for my 323. Now I want some good springs.

    From what I have read the H&R MX-3 springs would give me the best setup with those struts.

    Any ideas where to find some of them?
    I looked on ebay, and came up empty handed



    I found some other springs and there is a really good selection for the 90-96 escort? Same spring or different?

    Actually the ZX2 struts are made to match the Eibach springs. The H&R are the stiffest and most people that do autocross prefer them because of that. You can also use the MX-3 H&R springs. Keep looking on Ebay and check the forum if you want something used (for cheaper). There was a sale for Intrax springs ($100) brand new but I believe it has expired. Let me double check and I'll get back to you.

          ouch. $198.00 to buy and 12 bucks to ship.........

          210 for springs? A bit much. I will just keep my eye on ebay, hopefully I will find some off of there. Surely they cant be that much. I paid way less for my struts.

            I've heard that the KYB's wear out fast and the way to go is the ZX2's.

                    Their price for the Eibach springs is $210 + shipping.

                      about the same for their H&R springs.

                      Looked on the MX3 forum, but no luck.

                      guess I will have to just keep checking there and ebay.

                        I have the zx2s and sprint springs, good setup I'd say springs cost me under $150 on ebay.

                              id say H&R or B&G, and if you want a good race ride type setup, Eibachs. but the B&G and H&R's are good for their money.... imo. you could get $89 dropzone springs or coilovers. lol
