Need help......really!
Need help......really!
2 requests..
1. I just moved to tampa and have a pro kits springs set for my coupe. I have a fibreglass kit as well and am finding it very difficult to find a shop that can install them without scratching up the kit.....anyone know where i might find a good shop to install my springs?
2. I keep getting conflicting advice...I hear i can install my prokits without a camber kit as well (i have 19/9.5f 19/10.5r). and then i hear i need a kit?!! what the deal.
over time i am going to scrap them both, and get a strong coilover set up (dont say just get it now because im not!!) but in the interim i wanna just lower my car. i know i will need to get it aligned and all, but i want to know can i actually drive and not look like an idiot without the camber kit? will it effect my driving? will it feel like an african range rover when im driving? will the wheels look crooked or butterflied, or will they still look straight and stay under the wheel well?
i have the standard prokits not anything more.
also, unfortunatley i have an AT which overall coming out of a Z sucks a little, but i dig it. what good upgrades can I find? Im not looking to get an old school shift kit type thing that old mustang lx's had, but something that is definately top end. I like to jam on the highway late at night when i am coming from ybor city or cutting across the causway (you know wht im talking about.....straight runs of fun!!) i understand that FI is the way to go, but im not going to do that until maybe next year, what i am talking about is a good Airbox set up, and maybe a goodflow system. I also know that placement of the airbox is crucial, so is there anyone that has a pretty intricate placement of their airbox that still is pimptight and cosmetically savey? I have a replica ken style front end because I know the eurothane kit isnt as forgiving as a fibre glass front and dont want to have to replace it when i tackle a dip in the road i didnt see or a driveway or speed bump thats higher than k2!!
so im asking alot, but i have a nice joint like im sure we all do and i just wanna keep it looking nice.
thanks.
in addition, if someone can answer this as well...and dont just say do a search....just dont respond if you dont know.....im probably not going to do a FI system....so i have an idea as to what im going to do...
carbon fibre plenum if i can find one..
really good intake...ill figure it out soon..stillen, typhoon, injen
hks exhaust....
maybe a UR pully system...
on an A/T coupe...what kinds of gains could i expect?
i know i will not get TT gains, but i am really big on just jaming on the highway...for like 10 mins or so without getting nabbed by the po-po!!
looking for gains up to or as close to 300hp as i can. and that i can feel. I am very comfortable with my ***** size so i could care less about 1/4 mile times and dyno garbage, i am just talking about real actual hp gains that translate into increased speed.
so help is needed by those that know more than me... thanks!

well, your 1st question was really localized to a particular item and area of the country (Tampa shops that can accomodate a lowered car). you might try posting in the Florida G Club forum, or the SouthEast forum... you may get more responses there
your 2nd question was regarding your potential suspension setup. there is a Suspension forum... i hardly ever go there cuz i'm not into suspension mods, but the guys that hang out in there should be able to answer your questions
sorry, wish i could be more helpful with your questions, but usually asking in the right forum will get you alot more answers. good luck

I just want a simple answer. I have gone through archive after archive and all i read is arguing and people not answering questions other than do a search. well i have done a huge search and still have no reall reliable answer to the specific questions i had. figures. anyways. i guess im on my own. If some one has the power of suggestion, please close this thread due to non participation and lack of attention.
thanks.
