I dunno!! I tried checking the site a few times lately, especially after someone came in here saying they talk about chicago area meets over there! But the site is gone! So I guess we can start talking about meets in here come spring?

Hey SpreeBoy,
I see that you have the H&R springs installed. Where did you get them? How much were they? Also where did you have them installed, and is there any problems with stock struts? How long do you think they would last with different springs cause my car already has 40K. Also how much is it dropped and is it worth it.
Sorry for so many questions but I just wanted to know.
Thank You

Here goes: I gottem from Tire Rack back in june for 219 bucks. I had em installed at the Hillerich's in Glenview on the corner of shermer and glenview. No problems with the stock struts yet. I've heard it just makes them wear out faster, I had the springs installed somwhere round 30K miles. The labor for the spring install was like 430 bucks, so it would be cheaper to get both springs and struts intalled at the same time. H&R said it would drop my car by 1.4" up front and 1.3" out back, that sounds about right. Its not totally slammed, but it is noticeable. It looks great and handles better than stock, worth every penny. Are you the guy in glenview too? If you are, or wanna see/drive my ride to compare, lemme know.

Hey Thank You for the information. Yeah I am in Glenview. May be we could meet soon. Right now my rims are off for the winter so I have the original rims with hubcaps, looks ugly  (Wheels that is) But I'll be putting my chrome rims back on at the end of February. I hope we'll have that Chicago meet soon.

Site was down due to server hosting problems. One of our guys in the Chicago CEG is trying to find a different, more reliable server. And yes, I'm the guy who mentioned you should come over off this board for more discussion about a meet. By come over, I meant (and I think I spelled this out pretty much) to join the email list. That's where the discussion is. There is no discussion board on the Chicago CEG webpage itself. To join, go to: http://www.egroups.com/group/chicago_ceg In other news, my SVT is for sale on Ebay. Check it at: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=540734986 ------------------ Adam Wilson Chicago CEG member http://www.automotiveinfopage.com
