Cool

Might check SLP new car take offs,the last time I checked it was about $100.00 for all for corners(springs and shocks).My cd player used to skip over bumps as well.I would maybe try a 6-cd changer (maybe trunk mounted)I have seen them for about $120.00.Hope this helps(Speed Legal Performance).

Wait a minute, are you saying all four corners for $100. Where do I sign up Would you mind telling me where you found these. I mean $100 a corner isn't even bad

Take offs

Just got mine in last week. I was also suspension day dreaming, but this deal is WAY too good to pass up. Stock ride quality will do fine for 85 bones

This sounds like a pretty good deal to me. I should be able to use stock springs with these. Or maybe the Eibach Prokit. But this seems like a good deal.

WOW, Forget what I said above that is the deal of the century. How can you pass that up for $85. Thanks for showing me that. You are the man.....

No dude, I understood what you meant, I was just having horrible flash-backs.

the 94 Z28 stock springs are softer than the Eibach ProKit

i know cuz that's what i got. if you want ride comfort instead of ten/tenths performance, get new stock springs (or 1LE springs, but i think they are higher rate than stock 94Z) and KONI single adj. shocks

you can turn the rebound full soft F & R for soft ride/drag strip, or turn the fronts up to 8 or 9 and the backs up to 1 or 2 for higher speed driving.

lowering tire pressures to 28-29 psi all around will help your ride comfort as well
