Default Intrax springs

Hey, I did a search on springs on the site and was interested in the Intrax Camry V6 springs. I've been looking for a reputable site to order them from, and the only site I know is tirerack.com. They only have H&R springs there though. Where can I get me some Intrax?

Crap, just did another search on them forum-wide.. Looks like Intrax has a bad rep here at CL. Gonna go with H&R from tirerack.com instead.

How long have you had them for? People who have had them a little while have generally said that they tend to sag.

Also, I have found Vogtland springs and I found someone who said they are a great ride and have had no problems. They run about 170+shipping.

Right now, I am still looking towards the H&R, since I guess they are the best bet along with the Eibachs, but those Eibachs only drop 1".

One more question, would it be possible to use Camry 4cyl springs or would I run into problems?

I agree... Those wheels look classy on the car.

Anyway, I went ahead and purchased the H&R's for 260shipped.

I'm not trying to fling mud, but frank white's sig imo is photo chopped. There is a painted side skirt and the car is dropped more than usual. I'll get the website for the intrax.

We're not talking about the sig, we're talking about the pics of frankwhite's car with no photo shop.

Well, I've been looking more and I have found someone on Ebay who sells Intrax springs and has some V6 Camry ones in stock, Next Level Motorsports. His feedback is pretty good.

Hmm, I might as well order these as well and see how it goes. Have you found the site yet sk8er?

This is where I got the intrax springs. I was just saying the photo in frank's sig was chopped so that juan01 wouldn't get the wrong idea of how low the springs make the car look.
