I've always owned american cars with full frames. Before the firebirds I own now. I was wondering since I've read a lot of different things about it do SFC really make a unibody car feel like a fullframe car? I have no intentions of doing any roadracing or dragracing with my GTA. I just want my GTA to feel as solid as possible!

 

YES!

 

YES!! My wife almost hated my Iroc and when we rode up to the Auto Fair in Charlotte on Saturday, she commented on how stiff and solid and quieter the car was after I installed the Spohn SFCs...she loves it now.

yes, they make the car feel a lot better in everyday driving!! well worth the money IMO

 

Big difference on mine. IMO, the first mod for any thirdgen.

 

Sounds very good to me! Any of you guys with T-tops and SFC's?

I think SFC's are gonna be my first mod to my GTA.

 

:raises hand:

 

Me too.

The sfc's made the car ride much better and the first thing I noticed wth them on is that my t-tops didn't squeek when I pulled out of my driveway.

 

Yep, T-top guy here too. Just learned that my Alston's from TDS just shipped...now to get the car fixed...


Ed

 

yes right after i got them, less flex. the bumpy road i went down to get them installed wasnt so bumpy on the way back.

 

Oh yeah ... They are a must have item for a T top or vert

 

I got my Alston's from TDS today. They should be welded up by the end of next week.....I'll post up pics and such when I get it done.


Oh and I too have T-tops.

 

I think they make alot bigger difference on a t-top

 

Me. Got rid of squeaks and the ride is a lot more stiffer now.

 

Now I'm sure!!!
I'm definitively gonna have to get SFC's for my GTA.
Just need too see where and how I can get them without paying idiotic shipping costs to europe!!

 

Have the company you decide to buy from check out BAX Global for shipping. (Burlington Air Express) I ship to Belgium all the time and the prices are reasonable and the service can't be beat.

Thanks Alloy!

Someone told me about BAX before but I had forgotten the name of the company
He told me he had a lot of stuff that he ordered in the USA shipped out thru them and that they indeed have resonable prices.
I once ordered some dropspindles from SUMMIT and they sent them to me via UPS............shipping turned out to be more expensive that the whole order cost!!!!!!!! NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!!

Again, thanks for the advice!!:hail:

 

BTW...where in Belgium do you ship to regularly?
And what kind of quotes do you get?
I live about 10 miles from the (eastern)Belgian border.
So shipping should be about the same as to Belgium.

 

I ship to Thimeon, Belgium.

I don't remember pricing. My customer has me ship the parts on their account with BAX, but since I discovered bax they ship everything from the USA through them. I believe they have an online shipping quote system on their web site. Or, just call them and get a quote.

 

I put bolt on sub frame connectors on my 81Z with t-tops and the difference was outstanding. Before I had so much flex that on the highway there was always this one pot hole that if I hit it the hood would pop open...not anymore after the connectors. No more squeeks or rattles going over railroad tracks anymore either....best $20 I have ever spent(I got em used). Like others have said they should really be on the list of the first mods you do to your car.

 

we all know that our cars are weaker with t tops... like everyone says do them first. i love mine. now iwant wonder bar and 6 point roll cage, well i better get a strut brace etcetc etc

 

Got my Alston's welded in and I'm loving the difference!! The car feels MUCH tighter and no longer seems to pull to the right on hard 1-2 and 2-3 upshifts. Goodbye, chassis flex!! They also got rid of that annoying hatch squeak that used to drive me nuts. The fit was pretty good, I had to do a little trimming on the front mount plates to clear the 6-speed crossmember, but altogether I was impressed with the quality. HIGHLY recommended, and my thanks to Lon at TDS for the great GP price.
