Default Finally lowered, done with the car (until the next thing)






Just put in Steeda Sport springs and HD strut mounts to round out my suspension (Steeda Sport Springs, Steeda HD strut mounts, and Koni Sport Shocks/Struts). I took off my gt500 strut bar too in case anyone's looking for one

I'm really happy with the lowered stance, the wheels fill the wells perfectly now... But I'm mostly excited about the handling, I didn't think springs would make the car handle so much better, especially after how much I hated the ride in my lowered '95 GTS

I also got tired of Pony123 ignoring my posts and PM's and just bought new centering rings for my rims so no more wheel shake too!


next i'm thinking about painting the wheels or getting BBS's, but the college loans are about to start coming in so that all may have to wait

Nice. I wish I went with KONIs instead of the Dspecs.

Yeah i'm extremely happy with the Konis, Sam Strano pointed me towards them.

Yup, I do everything on my car myself except alignments (don't have a rack), and of course I'm never satisfied with what i get haha.

the steeda sports are 1" in the front and 1.25" in the rear. I just drove down rt73, my test of how the springs are on crappy SUPER bumpy roads and it felt great! This is a polar opposite of the eibach/tokico blues in my '95

I sent you a few PM's and posted in a few threads you had posted in over the course of a couple weeks a while back. but it's alright now I got the new ones and they work fine.

thanks though, i like 'em... I'm now considering either painting the wheels the color of the stripe or black.
