I currently have MTMsprings and bilsteins on the car (came with it when I bought it), it rides good, and sits nice,but the cornering is a little weak, and the right front shock/strut has recentlyblown out (Jacked the car up and moved the wheel up and down rapidly, no resistance whatsoever).

I cant really affod to dump more then $1K on suspension, since it will need a timing belt soon, and the left rear wheel bearing is on its way out, I would love to get the stasis tracksport or MS kit, but those are simply too much. I was looking at the Street sport, or mabye just getting new bilsteins, or H&R's, on bilsteins.... HELP! lol.

I would like to hear peoples thoughs on different setups. Thanks!

 

tein basic coilover system just $790 i think come with shock/struts and lowering spring

 

I have H&R ultra lows i bought used, they ride really well, its stiff but not overly. Its firm, just the way I like it They go really low as well, I barely have them down halfway and there is no wheel gap.

 

Im leaning towards the Eibach pro street or Vogtland GTs. After reading ALOT of reviews (anything I could find) I think it's going to be the eibachs.

 

Under $1000, you are kind of stuck. Votglands are $1050 & IMHO, are the best cheap CO out there. There is always people selling used stuff, or you can just save up.

Since you have all the maintaince things to do, don't worry about the suspension until that other things are fixed. The suspension will do nothing for you, if hte engine is blown.

 

well, at my current mileage accumulation, the belt willbe due around 6 mo. from now. I'll spend like, 1100-1150 max, I just dont want some $4k uber track setup, thats all.

 

if yall are talking about the serpentine belt, you can do that your self..I bought the belt at autozone and my girlfriends dad and I put it on without taking any thing off, my belt broke going down the road one day, I got it towed and we put it on a lift and pulled the old belt out and slid the new one on. He works at a pontiac dealership so we printed off the instructions that the factory tells you to do and it said we would have to pull the front bumper and the fan and all that junk, but its not needed.

 

Wow, thats all I have to say to that last post....

 

Come on...Finish! now the curiosity has got me.

 

^lol.^ Im torn... Vogtlands, Eibach Pro Street S's, or stasis streetsports?

The eibachs has the BIG advantage that they are stainless. Since I live in salt country, that is a biggie for me.
