    Eibach Spring Install

    I got mine from Discount Auto. If you have jack stands holdin the car up, you can use the jack to hold the control arm while you unbolt it and then slowly lower the jack. I do not advise doing this with out proper protection, holding chains, etc.

    Stock Gears

    Jack up the car in neutral with chocks under the wheels, mark the drive shaft with some white out or chalk. Have a buddy turn the rear wheel on complete rotation, count the reveloutions of the dot on the driveshaft. 3 and a half times = 3.55. three and a quarter times = 3.27. Easy as that.

    Steeda Competition Springs Question

    Steeda Sport Springs here. The only thing that scrapes are those HUGE speed bumps and those dang parking triangles that you hit if you pull too far up in the space. But as StangLou said they drop a nice 1.25-1.5. Definitely put them on. You might want to look into CC plates and a Bumpsteer...

    Opinions PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

    if manual definitely the shifter, tri-ax or pro five, both good quality..I have the tri-ax. MAC prochamber and cat backs are a great exhaust. Underdrive pulleys and Timing Adjustor are also cheap and easy mods. Some sort of CAI also is a good starting point.

    squishy brakes

    Its better to have a two man team. Have one buddy at the brake pedal while you are by the bleeder valve. Have a wrench and clear hose on the valve and the hose going down into a can or small bucket. With the valve closed have your buddy pump the brake pedal 5-10 times. Then tell him to push...
