Anyone know a good place to get suspension work done near Hampton? Im returning my car back to stock height. After that i'll be selling the suspension which is Eibach pro kit with the sport struts. The springs have over 5200 miles and the struts have 17500 miles.
I'll give you the exact miles once its removed. Let me know if your interested in the suspension. Thanks

BTW The springs will come with the original box papers and stickers.

Honestly I wouldnt even bother if I was you. You are going to pay 150-200 to have it returned to stock. The most you can sell the springs for is like 100 and maybe 200 for the struts.

Thanks for the input. Its just the front struts though. But if someone wants the struts i'll let it go for 100.

Alot of the same, just working and traveling.

Did not get the GTR in my previous e-mails, the car was in New York and when i called back a week later it was sold. I new it would not last long. I finally got to drive one, a black one with 3.4K and they are asking 69K.

I got to say, that i was not overly impressed, but it was fast. It was nice to just smash the throttle and fly past without losing grip. Once i got back into my car, it did feel a little slower, but not enough to spend the money. I am going to see about driving a CTS-V next weekend. Then i will decide to either GTR it or CTS-V it or keep my baby and supercharge it. TT is out of the questions, these guys are saying 15K to TT and i could just get a GTR and be just as fast or faster with little upgrades.

Tough decision!!!!! Help me decide what would you guys do!!

I'm biased towards Japanese cars. Love the reliability, the simplicity, and the functionality.
If it was my money I would get the GTR but I can't deny the awesomeness of the LSA.

But really... get the GTR. It looks better, it performs better, and its not a GM product

I know i probably would definitely like the GTR. I will keep looking, the one that i drove is black on black with black wheels and i am not a big fan of black vehicles, i have had bad luck with black vehicles. It does look outstanding and mean as hell when it is detailed, but i drive a ton and this is my daily driver. it would get dirty quick and when i got my first door ding, i would probably break down and cry right in the parking lot. ha ha

I have so many issues with my G, it seems that everyone that parks next to me, they make it their job to put a door ding in my car. I have been backed into and door dings in both doors. i did also do some damage my self when a mountain biker decided to go in front of me as i started to pull into traffic. His spiked pedals and bolts did some serious damage. I am looking at getting all that fixed. I may just keep the G for while longer. I have had it for 2 years now. Definitely not unhappy the way it handles and drives, just getting car bored!!!

talk at ya later and i will have a gtg at my crib in the near future.
