so yea, koni yellows are on the way. ordered them from an online site, which had cheapest price ive seen at $615 shipped. eibachs i got on ebay for like $202 shipped and arrived in 2 days..

as to the drop and the ride quality. this is the same setup as i had on my identical 97 White/black se and absolutley loved the ride and the drop, granted the drop could be a tad more, to me they are the best springs so thats what i went with. thing rode on rails and had zero complaints with this setup

yes, that is correct. same setup i had before on my 97 so when i was contemplating what to put on the 99, i figured if i went with anything else and wasnt happy, it would be my own fault for getting something different from what i know i like and id be super pissed for spending the money on something i wasnt happy with
