you could always get the ST170 struts like I got, and will be installing in the spring

Why not go for the SVT spring/strut kit
$384.30 from Steeda


Or get the SVT damper kit and some Eibach pro-kit springs

Damper kit is $262.01 from Steeda and I've seen a lot of the prokit springs for cheap on kijiji

I will have a set of lowering springs for sale ,cheap , used only this summer . I will install a new suspension , Multimatic , which comes with springs , so I won't need a whole collection of springs sitting in my garage (I still have the original SVT springs) . For now I am waiting for the camber plates .

im just looking for sumthing to put in the car for the short term. i plan on selling the car in feb and will be hopefully buying a other one.

but it wont safety the way it is i just have the springs out of the ground control coilover struts and they dont sit to nicely. plus my struts are blown


and if this deal falls thrugh ill end up keeping my car so i was thinkin if i could find some cheap used struts and some kind of springs maby svt. thien in the off chance i keep my car i will upgrade the struts in the spring.

how much for the svt springs

The ones that I have on the car are about 20% stiffer than the original svt springs and these are the ones that I intend to sell . I am thinking 60-70$ . In case I will sell the car someday , I might want to put back the original setup .

The camber plates will be shipped to Chicago and it all depends on a friend of mine (trucker ) to go there and pick them up for me . He said january , february . This way I can avoid GST , PST , brokerage fee and other taxes .
