Default Ordered my progress springs


I decided to get this thing going a bit more. I ordered my progress springs from saturn motorsports and talked to Wes on the phone. He's a great guy and was even interested to see my car on the net when I gave him my internet address. I think that's very kool. He was very professional on the phone and said my order should be here within the next few business days. If all goes smooth, I will be dropped in a short time. Can't wait. This is what I've been waiting for. I will definitely have pics for everyone when I drop the ride.

no I didn't get any new struts, can't afford it yet, I have a few other upgrades first before struts anyways. I bought the 1.8" springs. Can't wait till they are on, I've delayed the process as much as I possibly can.

I'd hang on to those springs and wait until you can afford new shocks/struts. Then install it all at once. Installing lowering springs with stock dampers is asking for trouble.

the reason I want to only install the springs right now are b/c my car only has 118,000 KMS on it, so thats what? 73,000 miles or so. Still can go for another while. I have heard that you should change out the stock struts at 120,000 miles or so. I think I'm still good for awhile but sometime this week I want to see how bad my struts really are.

A few days? HA! Don't hold your breath. I'm still waiting on my damn KYBs and it's been over a week and a half. As of right now, I don't believe I deal with SMS anymore. I guess SPS is the only place out there that actually has some customer serivce.

I bought the 1.8" springs also, but I was gonna buy the struts also, but there $200, lowering this car is starting to get pretty expensive!

did you ask if the KYB's were in stock Matt? I asked Wes if the progress springs were in stock and he said yes and they would be shipped out the same day (it was already 6pm). I dunno, I can't see him lying about them being in stock. We'll see how long they take to get here. I hope its not long.
