you'd like to think that, wouldn't you? you should be okay so long as you're not a baby.
if something i will blame it on you. ;)
Hey bio I posted some better pics for you of my 20s with intrax in the wheel and tire section.
Where can you purchase the intrax springs?
ill get on that at some point. at the moment im not going to see much computer this week.Quote:

i dont care about prices and neither should anyone else who is considering lowering their car correctly.
Bio, u got any info on putting bags on a GP?
Nice post Bio, very informative. Wish I had found it before doing as it would have answered a lot of questions.
Can you elaborate in the first couple posts about which combo's should have the bumps trimmed. I didn't find anything with the Vogt's that said to trim and so far don't feel as though it's riding on them.
Also it would be good to add that anti-pogos are front sub frame bushing washers.
i dont know much about it to tell you the truth.Quote:

Hey everybody, i recently made and upgrade. I went with Eibachs and GR-2. Then i got spacers from GP club member. And put in with new mounts. Car lowered much, and looks so much better. Totally different thing, Liking it very much. But it feels like something wrong, when im braking car is not evenly balancing out. Like one rear side is stiffer then other. I dont know what it would be. I had the service installing it, can they screwed something up with installation? Im thinking on taking some time and looking all over. When i get to put my f-body brakes in.
And yeah, is its necessary to modify bump stops? What your opinions on that.
if youre riding on the bump stops then you should cut them.
No i actually not sure if i even have them, but i bought 2 new front boots KYB which have them, and how much should i cut.
i dont know. the directions for the spring install should mention it if they want you to cut them.
cheap springs...
im not a fan of 'cheap' suspension components, and i dont mean price.
This doesn't make sense.Quote:

But they ARE the washers from the subframe... at least they damned sure look like 'em.
What subframe? These cars are a unibody... The main rail in the front clip that goes all the way to the front bumper cannot be removed from the car. The washers go in the strut tower, on the strut mount.Quote:

There's a link to what they do.
Am I wrong? Someone else chime in if I'm not making sense.
