I hate you all, I truly hate you. I Can't afford to buy these, to many other things to buy.

Have fun with your new suspension.

Instead of spending money on suspension parts for the GTA, I have to spend it on the G6 because the shocks are blown out and it rides like a super bouncy ball.

Just ordered front and rears yesterday. So glad to find that sale when I went looking for their part numbers. I was about to call them to have them price match a set I found online. But it ended up being even cheaper then the other set I was looking at. Cant wait to get them installed!

I'd replace both front and rear. Many members use Moog IROC replacements (a search will provide part numbers).

Both front and rear OE springs are equipped with isolators.

From the factory, our cars came with isolators on top of both the front and rear springs, so your car should have them already in place unless they've been removed somewhere along the line.

Re: Koni's on sale!

Just FYI, I dug around for a long time yesterday and came up with $648.64 shipped from AJUSA.com last night. Sale runs till the 12th, extended from yesterday. I couldn't find a price to beat that, although Summit might price match if you prefer.

Enjoy!
