I guess a certain person isn't holding a group purchase for any items this spring like last spring? i was lookin forward to see what would be up too

heh. Honestly... there's just nothing I need right now so I didn't look into running one.
And I just did the B&M shifter one in the winter, which was sort of "this Spring's" gp for me.
Is there anything people really need right now?
Didn't White_ZZZzzzzzzzzzz just run one for RK Sport stuff or is that one still going?
suspension, performance, didn't matter to me
I was lookin for struts, strut brace, or pulleys, or other light engine mods, i'll just keep surfin the classifieds

strut braces, or superchargers
lol one can only wish
I'll make some calls and see if I can set anything up. I figured I'd filled all the demand for suspension stuff last year but there may be a whole new group of people looking for things.
I'll make some calls on Monday and see what I can do.
The only company that could conceivably help with a boost GP would be RSM and I don't think we'll find 5 - 10 people all looking to spend $4k+ right now. That's one of those things each person just does when they can afford it and even knocking half a grand off won't make a bunch of people jump up to the plate.
Same goes for turbo kits. I could probably get the hookups for a 2.2L OHV turbo setup... but there's just no group of people looking to spend that much cash on them.
I'll look into whether I can do another suspension GP and see what comes of it.
I think we need a GP on Nitrous set-ups and product's,That's just my 2 cents though.
Friends Don't Let Friends Drive Stock!!!!!
I would like to see some struts and sway bars
"Take credit for your own work, not somebody elses "
WW see if you can swing a suspension GP with Tokico D-Specs
id be in for the suspension stuff, if it was the stuff i was looking for...

Guys / Gals, (gotta be politically correct
)
Im running a special right now on TEIN Springs and Coilovers. The price on the coilovers is maybe $50-100 more than what you would pay or a set of good quality struts and springs, but you get height adjustability rather than dampening adjustability. When I had my Koni' s on my Z24, I never touched the dampening....but I had the Reds, so having the yellows, it might be less of a hassle to adjust them.
Suspension is all about personal preference, but if you are interested, check the website out and let me know
Also, if you have questions, please email me using the email on my website (right at the bottom!). Being that I do not have a premium membership yet, I am very limited to what I can talk about on the forums.

I would LOVE to ride in a J with the tien setup to see if i like the ride or not. Does anybody know anybody in southern Ontario with the Tien full coils?

The tein's are kinda tempting, but I already have springs. I can always try and sell those, but then its a debate between adjustability vs comfort. My car's a daily driver, I don't know if I really want coilovers...
When you price it out though, going with Scott's sale, its only $40+tax extra to get the coilovers compared to what I'd end up paying for springs and d-specs together.
I'm still waiting for insurance to let me know if I can lower or not...
I have a set of Tein coilovers coming in for myself (sorry not a Jbody
) I will let everyone know how they are once installed. They're slightly different being that they are the Super Streets which are not available yet for the J-body. But the spring rates are 280lb/in all around.
My insurance company knows full well that I have them and they are going to be installed. I was told as long as I dont "slam" the car while driving, that everything should be ok. But that is my insurance company and it should not be taken as law.
Just an FYI before anyone asks....I will not disclose who my insurance is with for a variety of reasons....Sorry

i could do a g/p find out what you guys whant and i will set one up maybe some kvr pads and rotors?
<img src="http://registry.gmenthusiast.com/images/greeensunfire/sig1.jpg">
I need to do brakes soon, so that would work too. Hell, suspension AND brakes would be great.

i was hoping to get a gp on the koni yellows... maybe even gc coilovers too, but i already have sportlines so i dunno... but struts for sure....

Ok, I'm looking into doing the same sort of suspension GP I did last year. I may have prices by the end of the week and if they're good, I'll run with it.
Koni, Eibach, Ground Control.
No promises or anything. It all comes down to what sort of deals I can get for you.
no chance for D-spec or the Tein Basics?
just wondering thats all
And thanks for doing this for us.... i'm sure i can speak for everyone that is looking to buy suspension this year.
I didn't even think to ask. I'll find out next time I call whether they deal in Tein parts.
