Minnesota Balts

nice poolboyz, much of a change in the ride at all?
i want to drop my balt but am iffy on it cuz my buddy has an srt-4 that's been dropped and the ride is crap, you can feel everything and you cringe every time you hit even the smallest pothole or decent crack.
i love the look of it but am not willing to sacrifice the ride at all so let me know how yours is

My alignment is now off a bit as expected, but ill be fixing that within the next few weeks. I just have to give it some time to settle in first.

My springs are not in my trunk anymore!
First, a well deserved and special thanks goes out to Josh (Cavalier SS) and his buddy (sorry, but I don't know if I ever got your name) for helping me (I watched mostly) install my Progress Technology springs. The handling difference is huge, and the biggest difference is the decrease in body squat when accelerating and braking hard. The ride is only slightly worse than stock, but hey, we didn't buy this car for the ride quality
Here's the before shots:

Sooooooo I was listening to the KQ morning show on the way in to work today, and I hear an ad for the Carcraft show this weekend....presented by GM Performance. Guess what they said GM Performance is bringing with them...The Camaro. No, not an '02 SS or the '69 SS, that's right, the new one. I may be the last to the party knowing about this, but I'm friggen pumped now.
Anyone want to meet up before we go down there?

The ride doesn’t feel all that much different than stock. It does seam to handle a bit better in the corners now and I love the look of it being lowered.
My alignment is now off a bit as expected, but ill be fixing that within the next few weeks. I just have to give it some time to settle in first.
