Weren't you supposed to put the H&R in the front only?
I was originally thinking of doing that but after talking to Stazi and a couple other people, decided against it. Now I see Gator's car and I'm wondering again. Anyone know how his handling is? BTW, thanks Todd and Stazi. 
I just looked Gator up in the user list and he's only got 2 posts on the day he joined CEG--4/18/03--so I'm wondering if he'll ever answer my PM. I'll try to email him but just in case, Todd-since you posted the pix, do you know him or did I just get lucky?

wow all of these cars are freakin hot! .. makes mine look like crap  well i love the look of the GC's and those customed coilovers .. is the handling near the coils or is dropping it that far mostly asthetic? because someday im going to do one or the other..

Todd, the email address in gator's profile is no good. Any other info on this guy? Or how about some more pictures... I can't be the only one already with Bilstein's who want to lower their car without spending a bunch of cash for Koni's and GC's.

Sorry I don't. Maybe ask Honkey or post in the SE region.
He doesn't have email listed in his profile. Maybe PM him.

Copy of the PM you should have gotten (I sent it to "gator", not your current name):
I'm trying to get a good stance with my SVT. I've tried just Eibach's and liked the way the rear looked. I thought I could get more of what I wanted from H&R's but the front is still the same and the rear is 1 1/2" higher. They've only been on for a week but I'm startin to get frustrated. Then I saw a picture of your SVT with the Eibach rear and H&R front mix. I really like the way it looks. My main question is how has the handling been? Any problems at all? I'd sure appreciate your input. Thanks, Tom
