Quickie about Ground Controls
Some one who has them in a box (maybe you even got them under your Xmas tree), give me the front and rear spring lengths please? If I remember right, Eibach springs (that come with GCs) have a number on them... looks like 0800.250.0400
I need the first number (where the 0800 is in the example).
Also, does anyone know if the hardware can be purchased separately (w/o the springs?)
Thanks a bunch.

im pretty sure you can order seperate pieces off the GC's. when i was in the market for the hayame washer i was missing, i called spw (distrubitor of hayame) and they referred me to this shop in san francisco (since its nearest to me) and said to use a ground control washer since it works just the same.
i would call up ground control themselves. if you dont got long distance, let me know since i get free minutes this weekend nation wide

The problem isn't calling. The problem is that its Xmas and no one is open. I'm thinking I can't be the first one just trying to get the collars, so someone else knows.

**** those asscracks re-did their numbering scheme. Dammit.
Any chance I can bug you to stick a ruler to them?

i'm pretty sure the hardware can be purchased separately... i bought some longer and stiffer springs from gc to replace the rear ones that came with the gc kit for the 01 civics... i got the ones that come with the rsx gc kit and they work very nicely... they are like 100 ft/lbs stronger and 1 inch longer so no more bottoming out..
