yes, I did..... i am working on that

I am going to wait and see if the KYB struts are available for the 5th gen soon and then get either Eibachs or some ground controls... if not, I may just get a set of Konis....

Hmmmm..... too bad you're not closer or I'd take you out for a ride. Are the roads really bad? That might be the deciding factor. If the roads are bad, you're going to feel EVERYTHING.

Jane has 450/375 7" and I have 500/375 6" Her ride is much stiffer than mine AND she has my wheels (larger sidewall).... so

I wouldn't recommend getting anything lower than the default spring rates.

ask cheston

the roads are pretty bad out here. A few of us actually discussed this at MAXUS (i think i was talking to JeffK at the time) We mentioned how you guys can get crazier because of the way the roads are. Our roads suck. They fix them and then after each winter there are holes and cracks everywhere...

the reason I am considering GC's is because hogan can probably get a good deal on them.... especially if the group deal goes through.... having an adjustable suspension would be very nice

Over here on the east coast...New England,DC you know...all the road suck because of the bad winters, the winters are killing the roads..so there is nothing we can do about it...

BTW UMD...i just asked...cuz your car looks higher then the 2001 that i have so it was like a dumb question..so you don't have to order them NOW cuz some people are just playing with you(YJ,Y2kevSE,chris91...and the list goes on...LOL)

Maybe he'll lift his car up even higher once he has the GC's.

no problem man The reason it looks higher is because the car was parked on a slope and the camera angle made it seem like it was lifted. I was going to do the suspension next anyways so I may as well start by getting some springs or coilovers

I think I have my car about 2-2.5 inches lower than stock height (2" when mingo and I compared.... I've lowered it quite a bit after that).

I don't have camber plates.

Not that bad, but it is noticeable if you look closely.
