Member 1,008 Member For: 14y 11m 7d Gender: Male Posted 30/01/10 10:23 AM Share Posted 30/01/10 10:23 AM (edited) just picked it up friday, not a bad car, I hope it really loosens up when it has a few km on he clock feels pretty sow at low speeds atm, but goes well above 80km/htint getting done in a few days and tossing up with lowering, as I was going to keep it stock std but the firm ride (compared to his brother the soarer) has made me change my mind now so im tossing up between pedders or king springs, but I rally want to keep the comfort and smooth ride, couldnt care less about handlingid also love to do something about the sh*tty radio, how hardis it to run an aftermarket amp?btw the soarer is just a V8 and aftermarket airbagged, that's why its a little lowI'll get some good pics when I get time not phone cam ones Edited 30/01/10 10:24 AM by andrewd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you aren't fussed about handling then go with whichever spring you can get cheaper, but be aware that cheap is not always a good thing...

Member 1,008 Member For: 14y 11m 7d Gender: Male Posted 30/01/10 10:48 AM Author Share Posted 30/01/10 10:48 AM price isnt the concern its the ride quality, I havent has a car on just regular lowered springs im many years (all have been stupid low, or like my soarer bagged) and that car was a falcon and it went from super smooth to reasonably firm...believe it or not I brought this car with the intentions of keeping it as stock as I can, usually I cant help myself... but I'd just like to level it out maybe 15-20mm @ front and bring rear down a tad further, but not wanting it to become any worse in the way it handles small bumps or highway b and c roadsyeah from vic!I was going to get silver/black interior, but I found the velvet and had to have that... needs a good polish and detail though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
