Installed new springs, how does it look?
Front springs, eibach pro-kit
Rear springs, eibach drag launch kit with passengers side air bag set at 25 psi.
I think its a good middle choice for an aggressive look and performance for traction.

thanks.
yeah the factory stock rims were too old and beat on, time for a change so i got the firehawk rims. it rides pretty nice, i still need to mess around with the pinion angle some for extra traction.

I know what you mean about the rims, they are kind of dated. I'm keeping mine until I find some 17" or 18" knock off GTAs.

CETATornado: feels real strong now, the front lifts up alittle during a launch and the rear stays planted. i wont be craving any turns any time soon though.
Justins86bird: u think i have money left after all the mods i did :lala:

I like them as low as u can go with out the ride being so rough u cant stand it. It looks nice but the back is a lil high hopefully it will settle a lil. Yeh add yah some stereo equipment and do a few launches.

Looking good Md! I think your car looks great now, wish mine looked that good. I hope you gave up on trying to get the RAI hood to fit and are keeping the powerbuldge. The powerbuldge looks awesome with everything else you've done. Nice work.

f.y.i i am most likely brining my ram air 1 hood to the Nationals for sale not sure yet.
also i am thinking about going to macco and getting a quick black paint job and to fix the main dent in my passengers door.
i also still need to get some tint, and i am running out of time.
82firebird: thanks, and yes i did give up after about 2 hours trying to get it to fit right, i am keeping the stock hood.
Spdfrk1990: thanks
nikh23: i have the ram air 1 hood but put it back in the box, and i am keeping the stock hood now.
Justins86bird: credit card i dont even have one. i think i am going to stay with the slp caps.
1991 Z-28: nope same paint as i had at the other shows, however, its even worse now. during the winter some girl hit my door, and during the header install my factory y-pipe decided to take a fall on my quater panel, in that one passengers side rear shot u can see spray paint going down at like a 45 degree angle.
85_ZED28: thanks
nolanr0413: thanks, since my car is slow, i might as well put suspension mods on to help traction for better time hopefully.

Looks good, I do agree that it could be just slightly lower though, but like you said, they'll probably settle a bit.
