I'm probally keeping those on for a while untill I have the money to replace them.

I just bought the car a few weeks ago, so far it has a 1.5 inch drop, along with a cold air intake, new exhaust, and a few visual mods.

The guy who orignally owned the car was doing some wiring work on the car and accidently set the passenger air bag off, i'll be picking up a whole new dashboard in a couple weeks and doing a lot of interior work. I'm only 16 so this is my first car, I'll be doing a lot of suspension work because when im 18, this car is going to be just for autocross. If you have any sugestions to make this car better, please share.

well ive been autocrossing in my 2000 cavalier and I can tell you if you have the stock sway bar bushings go to autozone same with the endlink . fit its adlustalbe bring it down another inch and got with a good aftermarket brand like kyb tein koni for the shock. a set of pace setters I will donate if some one can get me a nice turbo manifold for the even swap for the t3. for the rear I hear some good things about doing a rear-end swap with the grand am independent rear. but this will put you in a modified class. if you havnt been autocrossing before watch the track for the ups and owns not many people watch for that that really does help make the descion on how to make the turn and beleive it or not if the rear will get ahead of you. been auto crossing for about a year in my stock cavalier so I do know alittle

Thanks for the tips, right now my car is setup to race in the STS class which is a very fun and competitve class. I'll be getting new shocks and springs for the car, front and rear sway bars, along with front and rear struts, and an anti-body roll kit to start, then as I go i'll get other things i need. I also want 4 new falkens to race on, instead of the Toyo's I have on it right now.
This sunday im going to a race, I will probally be driving my friends Neon in it, so it will be good practice.
