Just broke down and ordered the front coil over setup and new springs for the rear. Car will be lowered 2-3 inches...should look pretty good and get those et's down!
Serious business. Now it's a racecar. The fronts work fantastic on my car. The adjustability and smoothness is amazing.
New converter is finally on the way to me. Can't wait to get this back on the road and have some fun!
Just loosened it back up to 3000 hopefully. Year before I could footbrake 3500, last year was 2500. Hope to be right inbetween this time.
new suspension is on and that saved a few lbs as well. The front end ended up 2 1/4 inch lower and looks real good. Cant wait for racing season now. Put all this money to some use.
I can tell you. You are going to love those fronts. I went out today with them and I could dial the extension and the compression til' it was perfect. I ended up with 7 clicks from full loose on the extension and 5 clicks from full firm on the compression. The let the front end come up just quick enough without unloading the rear when the suspension topped out and held the front end up for the launch, but allowed it to settle once I rolled out to the 330'. I can't believe I didn't buy these sooner.
I hope someone gets some good vids of it from outside the car...ill have my go pro but its starting to act up. And yea I prob should have bought last year...my front shocks were still good that we took off but the rears were destroyed, they weren't doing anything ---------- Post added at 12:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:35 AM ---------- Thought we were done last night after 9 hrs of work on the car with a friend..then turned the wheels lock to lock to make sure nothing rubbed with it being lower and found this...someone screwed up royally. No bushings in the upper control arm cause they put it on with no washers between the bushing and but.
Before and after ---------- Post added at 01:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 AM ---------- ---------- Post added at 01:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:46 AM ---------- We also redid the exhaust after the down pipe. Instead of going back to the rear end and turning down, it now turn out and shoots out the side. Car is now much quieter on the inside when sitting still and cruising but just as loud when wot lol, but it's supposed to be loud then right? Plus flames shooting out the side when on the 2step and near 0 timing is just plain fun!
Not with normal driving at all, maybe if you hits big bump while turned all the way but that would be it. It's def not a corner carver lol
What is the part number on the shocks you are running? If you do not mind me asking, how much were the front and how much were the rears? Thanks in advance, Gary
Don't know part number, had local suspension guy order everything for me. But it's around $900 for front and rears. part numbers change at the end with letters just depending if you want Torrington bearings and spanner wrenches (get them), and what size and weight springs
