    I would rather lose by a mile because I built my own car, than lose by an inch, because someone else built it for me. Your car is your story, so don't let someone else write the book.

    YOU DONT HAVE ASS SAG.

    it's how the ****ing car is shaped. jesus christ, why don't any of you read the things i say?

    there are literally NO drop springs that will produce that 'level' look because you'd have to drop the front like a mile and the rear not at all. the struts have NOTHING to do with the ride height, it's all the springs.

    want it to be level or raked? cut a half coil off the front. otherwise it looks fine. that's exactly how mine looked too.

    I'm in the same boat. The rear looks lower, going to fix that with some different linear springs eventually and cut something like a half coil off.

    Tisk Tisk...I think some of us forget we drive Grand Prix and not a import..and that so called ass sag is how the car is shaped...lower it and get rid of the 4x4 status and be happy and stop complaining about the ass sag. Like Bio said cut a coil if you care so much if not drive it like it is and stop putting so much thought into it. My $.2
