That's exactly what I am looking to do before summer. Where did you get your springs and shocks?

so yea, koni yellows are on the way. ordered them from an online site, which had cheapest price ive seen at $615 shipped. eibachs i got on ebay for like $202 shipped and arrived in 2 days..

as to the drop and the ride quality. this is the same setup as i had on my identical 97 White/black se and absolutley loved the ride and the drop, granted the drop could be a tad more, to me they are the best springs so thats what i went with. thing rode on rails and had zero complaints with this setup

yes, that is correct. same setup i had before on my 97 so when i was contemplating what to put on the 99, i figured if i went with anything else and wasnt happy, it would be my own fault for getting something different from what i know i like and id be super pissed for spending the money on something i wasnt happy with
