Thanks. Where exactly did you get the ST200 struts? Are they still available? I would love to see a pic of that setup. That is what I am looking for I think. I want to buy the suspension right now but can't find those struts anywhere. How is the alignment with that setup. Are you running the front camber kit?

I did a google search earlier and didn't find them either.

I found two more pictures of Allens ride that better shows the stance:

Thanks for posting a few pics , Christine . The "driving" pics are a couple of my favs .
I have a couple recent pics in THIS FOLDER .
I got the ST200's through BAT a few years back - was lucky , I guess . I figured I'd run 'em till I could afford Konis or whatever , then just never persued it any further (typical me ) . I'm not running any camber kits on the car & it never really affected tire wear a bit . I got 25,000+ miles out of my orig. stock tires & they never even needed re-balancing . IIRC , the fronts have almost 1.3�º of neg. camber & the rears are right at 1�º . I was doing quite a bit of autocrossing at the time I first did the spring swap , so the negative camber was OK for me . I've grown used to it since then .

Thanks for the pics. The car looks good. I think bat still sells those struts but I see nothing about the 1" lower spring perch. I want my front a little lower. I found a 2 car that look how I want mine but I don't think the susp is made anymore. I have a link to the pages if you want to check it out.

Mine too.

You should give BAT a call and see what they have to say about the struts, maybe they can still get them. Here is the number: 941-355-0005 or you can fax them at: 941-355-4683.

Hey thats me in one of those links!


Like we discussed, I dont think the BAT kit is going to give you the low enough look from body to ground, but it probably will from wheel-fender.... If that makes any sense

Yeah I get what your saying. I don't care about body to ground. I am more looking to get rid of wheel space if you get what I am saying.
