a hell of alot better.... my mechanic told me that my front struts were completely blown..... my car rode rough as hell before and had alot of body roll....it was kinda unpredictable.... now it goes where its supposed to when its supposed to, rides 10 times smoother, and corners flat as a pancake.... i love it

yea you have to. but with 93 you get more mpg soooo it almost equals out in the end... you pay a little moer but you get a little more power....so its all good

Nice and I did Koni struts, shocks, Kenny Brown subframe connectors, ADCO antiroll sway bar, BBK castor/cambor plates and a Motorsport strut tower brace and it's like night and day. You gotta get the power to the ground.

Got to ebay. You can find brand new one's and a hell of a lot cheaper. I believe they do have an on-line store too. I think KB's are all weld on's, but if not, get the weld in's.
