Legal ride height in ca is the 23" from the floor to the center of the headlight. That's the lowest it can be. Are you going to powdercoat them.

hybrid-Srt2001 · Post by **hybrid-Srt2001** » Fri Apr 23, 2010 4:27 pm

yep im lower. and yes i will coat them; either gloss white, or gold.

thinking about wrapping my hood in this vinyl; if i can get a large enough piece.

we can't all appreciate the female form, would you prefer urban camo penis's?

I like the female form, but it's the cammo I think is hideous. Especially on a hood...

It wouldn't be as bad if you wrapped your headliner and door inserts in that, but why on the hood? I don't get it.

i plan on doing that too. i honestly don't care what you guys think anyway, its my car and my own personal style. thanks for the comments though.

went to the junk yard today. I picked up a 95 sohc wiring harness, a ton of connectors and a single fan radiator shroud.

i'm getting excited as the swap list gets closer to being complete.

proud new owner of these!

obviously i will not put them on looking this shitty. a few coats of powdercoat is in store for them.

damn... I've actually been thinking about picking a set of those up and doing them some bright ass color but I haven't seen any locally for cheap. I pass this sunfire by my apt sometimes with some on it and it look pretty good. GTZ wheels ftw. PS they look really good polished!

hybrid-Srt2001 · Post by **hybrid-Srt2001** » Sat Apr 24, 2010 2:37 am

thanks ryan? i am still unsure of a color. they may just go white again. i don't want to draw too much attention to the car with flashy colors that scream "pull me over"

sidepipe87 · Post by **sidepipe87** » Sat Apr 24, 2010 2:38 am

Yeah I hear ya. The white will actually look really nice I think.

max i can do with these wheel studs is 13mm. they are from a 98 ford taurus and are 10mm longer than stock. only 30 bux for 10 vs the 60 for arp.

FAC3L3SS · Post by **FAC3L3SS** » Mon May 24, 2010 12:03 pm

I'm sure you've posted, and they aren't factory, but what strut body are you using? I've got some Mopar S3 coils that I want to stiffen up, and those QA1 springs are legit and well-priced. I'm thinking of grabbing maybe 400f / 350r. Are yours 2.5" or 2.25"? I know 2.25" is too small, but I've also ready that 2.5" can be a little big.

hybrid-Srt2001 · Post by **hybrid-Srt2001** » Mon May 24, 2010 1:12 pm

these are factory struts that have been modified. I cut them down to keep them from bottoming internally and blowing. They have handled the springs suprisingly well; it is just a very bouncy ride because of the lack of dampening. These springs really need a set of konis, but i don't like the idea of spending $500 and cutting them up. The springs are standard 2.5" id iirc. It's the standard coil over sleeve size.

FAC3L3SS · Post by **FAC3L3SS** » Mon May 24, 2010 4:18 pm

Alright cool. I'll check mine over when they get in this week, but I wanted to be sure. I didn't realize how cheap new springs were
