how many miles do you have on it, and whats the drop on the front and rear?
The pro kit is a 1.4 all the way around. They have around 12,000 miles on them.
$300 Brand new strut mounts also.

no thanks man, i just got the ksport kit with the 1.8 drop in the front and 2.3 in the rear for $178. do you have anything else you are selling that will fit my car because i really need to find front and rear strut bars?
Did you buy just springs? My setup comes with struts,springs,strut mounts. If you put lowering springs on stock struts then you will blow them and it will ride like crap afterwords.

yeah i only bought springs.
get ready for a rough ride
i have aftermarket shocks though, not stock ones, their sensatrac shocks.
Struts right we don't have shocks
They are not lowering struts though. Go take a stroll over to the suspension threads and take a look.lol

yeah i have aftermarket struts, my bad, but not lowering struts.
Your going to need lowering struts the other ones will blow out in about 6 months tops
yeah thats enough time to get some more money together and get some nice struts
I have had lowering springs on my older car for 3 years and not a problem and of course its going to be bumpy thats what will happen any time you lower any car. granted if you put after market "performace" struts on the car it will cusion the ride a lil bit better but you still going to have a bouncy ride. i now have air ride on my car and its still bouncy as hell. so trey you will be fine with what set up you are getting and the setup that the guy with the blue cav is trying to get you to buy is crap it still looks stock just search the photos and media section he had pics of it posted and it didnt look much diffrent at all
alright sounds good justin.
Yeah just about as crapy as MR.CAVY254's pep boy wheels. But to each there own.
I'm just the type to do things right the first time and be done.

^^^ hahahahah you fag is that the best you got.........
you still have that massive ecotech inside sticker on the back of your backglass? lol or better yet is your car still undrivable becasue you dont know how do drive.
but back to the topic trey do what your doing
Damn calm down pep boys isn't that bad. That have some good deals.
And no I never had the ecotech inside sticker I HAD the ecotec inside sticker but its gone now.
If my car were still on the road,I would have gladly walked you.
It WILL be back on the road though so don't worry.
Snow storm+slush+bald tires = wreckage. Not a @!#$ty driver.

well i am glad to here your getting it back on the road because dont get me wrong, cody is it? i acutally like your cav it has come a long way from where you started with and if you search your pervious post i have support what you have done to your car but what my firend, trey is looking for is more for looks so lowering springs on stock struts is not a bad decission...... and for the price of those springs and how good of a drop it is you just cant beat it and just fyi i didnt get my rims from pp boys ask ecoclean where there from orginally becasue hes the one im bought them from not pp boys...
I'm just jerking your chain man.....lmao. There was some that looked like them awhile back at pep boys.
It kinda offended me when you said my setup is crap when I spent a mere $500 dollars on it.
Its a really good ride to tell you the truth,a way better ride than my d-specs and tenzo r's I have now.
But yeah Its cody. I went to the 08 LSB I think I saw you there. It really saddened me when I wrecked my car. It was starting to look really good. I just got the windows tinted and put my third tranny in it...lol I was REALLY hard on that car. I raced it EVERY weekend and never skipped a beat. But anyways back on topic.
Go ahead and put the springs on it won't hurt I guess. Just don't expect alot out of them as far as ride quality.
13.520 @ 98mph! 220whp 234tq
well i didnt mean to offend you man but i can see your point i should of had used a better choice of words..... and i hear you on the wreck part i hate to see anybodys hard work get trashed like that..... and you dont remember when i met you at the wataburger in dallas? that was your first time meeting the texas j's also back when i had my red cav also right when stephen installed his airide, man that was a long time ago.... but good luck to you and your rebuild hope all goes well and you plan on coming out to the bash this year?
I don't remember...lol
That was a LONG time ago.
I remember stephen's black cavy with bags. That thing looked tits.
Any pics of your car since you bagged it?
13.520 @ 98mph! 220whp 234tq
LOL yeah it was......... and hellls yeah i loved stephens car its a shame its long gone now. and yeah i got a few ill try to post them up some time
