Track is best feeling ever! I'm gonna be at Bogie for Ted Powell memorial this year and tracking day before most likely (July 22nd with MCO)

Don't forget to get back to me John lol. No rush, I know you are busy. I'm just bored right now.

PS guys, its a race weekend dedicated to the Powell family, ie John's father

you say your picky about ride height from lowering springs....the real question is do you want a car that looks awesome or a car that handels awesome or both? your options....you could go h&r eibach sportlines or b&g springs they provide an awesome drop but fail when it comes to handeling.

you could go eibach pro kit or pedders....the drops not so great but the handeling is superior to all.

option 3 is the most costly. go with coilovers. you could contact anze peneske or ohlins to get you to build a set for 4-8k which will out do any other coilover on the market but they are RACE ONLY! you could go with stance for a decent price but i believe they need a stiffer spring in the rear.

my solution to you is go with stance coilovers with custom spring rates since you want a nice drop and handeling. just remember just because your nice and low doesnt make a better handeling car.
thanks for being stand up about it. i'm not really looking for race car handling cause my car doesn't see the road course EVER. i'll probably end up with h&r's. i'm sure they will handle better than stock and look better than the pedders stance.

plus, i think those springs give the driver an ego. that's why they cost more. you must not have pedders boosted_cobalt09. now, watch these dogs fight over this bone.

i'm out

lol, they're not expensive because they're an ego boost, they're expensive because of the quality product they are.

h and r's DO NOT MAKE THE CAR HANDLE BETTER. i have h and r's on my car so take it from someone that has had them on the car awhile and has taken more then a few high speed turns and stuff. it with no questions asked handles worse then stock but looks amazing.

the reason i dont have pedders is because they werent out when i bought my springs. the reason im not switching to them now is because im going to coilovers with custom spring rates otherwise I WOULD BE SWITCHING TO PEDDERS. they are without a doubt the best springs out IN COMBINATION with tc struts in my honest opinion.

now i wouldnt go as far as saying it handles worse than stock, and that is also coming from someone who has them on their car. the fact that i dont have the body roll in the corners alone helps over stock.
