Installed new suspension today, pics inside
Well, I finally got my suspension all ready to go and installed today.
Best part of the entire thing is, Mike (88crex) did all of the work. All I had to do was offer a second set of hands a couple times. This was really efficient for us lazy folks Anyhoo, here it all is, I wanna dial in the height a bit more but I must say the car rides...PERFECT. Not stiff, not bouncy, doesnt bottom out, its just ------- perfect. One funny thing I noticed when we pulled the coilovers out and inspected them, was that the last guy had the springs all mixed up. He had them like this Front Right - 350lb spring Front Left - 450lb spring Rear Right - 450lb spring Rear Left - 350lb spring kinda funny.

Yikes. http://24.20.167.40/suspension/suspension15.jpg http://24.20.167.40/suspension/suspension16.jpg http://24.20.167.40/suspension/suspension17.jpg http://24.20.167.40/suspension/suspension25.jpg Before on cut springs, see that hard ass tuck http://24.20.167.40/suspension/suspension01.jpg Two after shots after we had the fronts in, way better http://24.20.167.40/suspension/suspension02.jpg http://24.20.167.40/suspension/suspension26.jpg The end result.

lol, I remember the very first set of Eibach springs I put on. I put the front ones on first and dropped it to the ground. I said "God damn that ---- is low!". Then I put the rears on and said "Son of a bitch, I put the rears on the front". God damn noobies. :-[

before the top of the tire was about 1" - 1.5" up into the fender, now the front is only about 1/4" up into it, and the rear has about 1/4" gap.

nice. I've been trying to figure out a good suspension setup that would be cheaper than koni yellows and GC's...
