switching from gc's to neuspeed springs
i have had it with the bouncy ride of the ground controls. they are a pain in the a$$ with the messed up roads of the bay area. anyways i'm going to switch to some neuspeed sport lowering springs and wanted to know if i will need extra parts to make the switch. in other words will i need to buy parts that came with the oem springs but were taken out when i intalled the coilovers or will the new springs fit right in with the current set up. also, with these springs, will my car fit on a bodyshop ramp when i get my oil changed? i currently have a g5 body kit on it.
p.s i'm selling my ground controls, after i take them out, for $180. they are in good condition and are four months old. if someone wants them e-mail at j_bidwal@hotmail.com.

Rep Power: 0 I am having the same problems. Do you have stock shocks because if you do you might have blown shocks. I have Ground Controls with Konis and it still bounces. How low is your car[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] BTW when are you going to switch I would like to know it rides. About buying anything new I don't think you will need to buy anything. The springs should go right in.

Rep Power: 305 The only thing I remember is that when you install GC's you were supposed to cut the spring perch off of the stock struts to allow the coilovers to have clearance. If they did this, then you would have to buy new struts as well. Right now, you can only get the stock ones, as the Koni's are an insert.
Tokico is supposed to be coming out with a full strut soon.
