nice car man and i agree with tim on lowering it just cause your old one was slammed and road hard doesnt mean you have to do the same set up...i think they look alot better being a bit lower

I agree, my last car had coilovers, and going low became a sickness until the suspension was maxed out as low as it could go. I would literally get stuck at an intersection if there was any sort of "rut" in the road. I will end up with springs, any of you guys have camber issues? I thing I would like to keep with this car is the tire/ road contact patch, with 315 dr's it doesn't spin too much.... for now.

My car has H&R springs and I was worried the ride would be overly stiff but it really rides smooth. I've had no ground clearance issues really either.

Yeah my car came with 17,000 miles on it and that thing is chirping like crazy! Must be any issue when they sit for most there life?

Like Tim said, Eibach Pro Kit. That way it won't be so low, there may be some negative camber in the front. I bought a set of Camber bolts for my GT from Summit to correct it. Easy to put in too.

Sounds like you have the H&R Sports....My TR Cobra has the H&R Race springs (red in color) and they're similar to the Eibach Pro-kit .... I still like the Eibach's much better!!

Nice RagTop
