ALMOSTSTOCK are'nt you the original owner of your car? That would rock so much to be the only person to ever screw around with my car.

Yes I am the original owner; bought the car 5/11/89.
Other than the paint, 1 factory recall, 1 hearter core replacement, and some of the motor work I've done all the other work on the car myself.

I did the MAC 2" and it's beating the hell out of me. The HPM subs will probably drag on the big bumps but I drive around those. As far as rear ride height, I got spacers for the rear with my megabite jr's so I can adjust the back height. Think it's sitting a hair low right now, probably add another 1/2" when I get off my lazy butt.

And yes, it sits about 1/2" higher in the front than I wanted. My car's way lighter up front than a stocker now (No A/C or smog anything, aluminum heads and battery in the trunk) so that might account for some.

OK, I had just put those tires and rims on, rolled a block down the street and took a pic at the park. Didn't realize you could see the stickers until afterwards.
