Anyone interested in starting a spring group buy? Anyone done this for springs before? I'm looking into the BAT springs, cause I don't want to go as low as Eibach or H&R (unless someone can inform me otherwise). We could try going to BAT directly or maybe SPmotorsports - if we went with SPmotorsports maybe we could get a discount on a variety of springs. Let me know. If there's interest, and a good deal, I'd be willing to do some talking. A good deal is vital for me, cause I'd be paying for an install.

I have H&R/Koni yellows and I was worried about it being to much of a drop before I had mine installed. Very happy I took a chance. Chris 99 SE V6 5sp

Definatly interested in a H&R/Eibach and Koni combination if the price is right. Everybody ive talked to is so happy with the big drop (H&R and konis) rather than the small drop  (bat springs&struts) i think it is a easy choice. My car is a daily driver in canada with 5feet of snow every winter, and im not worried.
the best part of owning a SVT??

So is this going to be a 'spring only' GB or a 'spring/strut' GB??? I'm up for just some springs right now. Eibachs, H&R, or Ground Control. Any of those and I would definately be in. I'd rather not deal with BAT, I've heard of too many problems when dealing with them. Plus, I've always had luck dealing with Scott at SPmotorsports.

I was thinking just springs for myself, but we'll see what Joe Scott at SPmotorsports will do for us. It looks like there is a fair amount of interest for both springs/struts and just springs, so I'll try calling/emailing this week and see what's up. I'll keep you guys posted.
