Do you have them on your ride right now? If that pic in your sig is your ride stance, that is about what I am wanting... I have heard lots of opinions on the goldlines, what is your opinion? Is it a rough ride? I was thinking of the RK Sport coilovers, just because I like adjustability but I am starting to lean towards just getting lowering springs like Intrax or skunk2 or maybe Tein....
I want something that is going to get rid of that freaking fender gap and not be bouncy or hard. I want something that when I am driving to Atlanta to go to NOPI is smooth but responsive....

yes i have goldlines but they just were not low enough for me.... so i cut a loop off them. best handleing car ive ever been in with just springs. they rode just about like factory before i cut them and now that i cut them it still rides good enough that i dont think twice about putting my 20mo. old daughter in the car
this is the stance before i cut them an this is with 205/40-16.... sorry for the @!#$ty pics
Shweet!!!! I need something! LOL Who has heard or who...locally has the RKSport coilovers? I remember reading about the Goldlines when you first did the work to them. Here are my needs.... I need something that rides close to stock not bumpy but a good stance. Thinking about the Intraxx or the Teins. Sorry to slightly hijack the thread, I want to try to get some things done before the meet.
Where is that kid that lives on Maysville Rd here in Huntspatch lately???? I drove down another part of that freaking road and didn't see a primer gray cavalier....LOL Dude, that road goes on forever! So if you some crazy blue cavalier flying around the back roads of TN and AL today, that was me. Man today was just most awesome. Got out around 1pm and stayed out until like 7pm. Man, I can't wait till spring!!!!!!

well march 25th is the date of the spring break nationals in Florida, but i really doubt i am going to be able to make it down there. so i am in for march the 25th. are we having it in b'ham of t'town? cause t'town is a long drive for us northern AL guys. b'ham was a pretty good meet place last time. maybe this time we have a bite to eat somewhere like wings, hooters, or something then head to the park to hang out and chat? any other ideas guys?

tuscaloosa is only about 35-45 mins past where we met last time, but ok, if you guys want to do it in b-ham thats fine. i guess we could go back to the same spot.
now we have to agree on a date apparently some of the guys are probably gonna go to the nationals
SAT. APRIL 1st (fools day) <----------good for everyone
Yeah!!!
And I still vote Tuscaloosa. If it is in Birmingham again I'll still go.

I would say Cullman would be a good place to meet, its right up 65 for the Birmingham People, and just down 65 for the North Al people. If its in T Town were out, the ride was hell down 65 with air, won't be doing that again. It would be nice to get it up our way . Theres a lot of people I know that would come ,but they don't want to drive that far.
where abouts in cullman do you have in mind.
garrin if we have it farther north, if you can, you can come up the day before and crash at my place if you want and then follow me up there the next day.
I would be able to do that. Thanks brandon.
Man looks like its going to be an exciting couple of months for me. Spring Break Nationals in march. Then this meet beginning of April. Then the Florida meet beginning of May.
Im gonna go broke.
Hopefully I'll get some taxes back so I can paint my car.

Nothing particular in mind just yet, but I can come up with something.
Oh, and an update. The purple car is purple no more as of today, its being painted as we speak. He had it painted an orange and black two tone with a carbon fiber hood. I'll try to get a pic up after we bring it home in the morning.
yes please do get a pic. i bet it is sexy. did he paint it again, or have someone do it?? if you would ask him how much he would charge to repaint my 87 s10 reg cab back red.
We had someone paint it this time, due to the timeline. We just got it back from paint yesterday. The carbon fiber hood and door pillars are now on. We still got to do the striping beteen the 2 colors, when the paint cures a little more. But it looks like a whole different car, and no more air ride on this one. On painting your truck he'd be more than happy to paint it, we're working on getting our shop out of the ground. So it will be about a month or so. Gotta have somewhere to park the children.
& Heres on of the back. Had the trunk, anteena, a couple of body lines, and the door handles shaved. Still gotta go to the exhaust shop this Tuesday.
