RE: Springs, CIS-E, Cams, and fun 16v stuff! (opinions needed)

heh, yeah. I have to order those also, and I have to ship your damn swaybar
yet :) I am going to mattress discounters later today (I used to work there)
because the only thing I can think of to ship it in is a box for a bed
headboard! I have your addy, info, and what not all written down and ready
to go, I just have to do it :)

Exactly, when I turn the koni's on really close to full stiff, I dont want
to hear music, I want to drive :) What did the Strut bearings + bump stops +
H&R's= (total with shipping) ? Thanks,

I use H&R, and my CD player only skips over the really big bumps that I
try to avoid anyway. When I adjust the Koni's into the firm position, it
skips all the time, but if I adjust them that way, I'm not planning on
listening to the stereo anyway. ;-)

FYI, I have the OEM Febi strut bearings and bump stops from Potterman.
