Spring Clamps. Lowering????
It may be really strong, and it might work, but I would not do it to my own, I am saving for Intrax, cut off the extra coil, and use koni's for adjustability. $$ but worth it. If I were broke I would buy some nice used springs from someone like me and cut a coil. Craig -

Spring Clamps. Lowering????
I would expect Sh*tty ride, and if they actually whithstood enough stress to hold the car down an inch, I would not want to be near when one breaks and pieces go flying. Should be a harse ride. Save for new springs,struts. God Luck, Craig -

Keypad replacement

The one on my parts door looks brand new and want it on my car, how does it come off the door, do not...- texas hot rodder

Sounds like bs boink but I could be wrong. But 10 horse power, oh_my He probably just wants to slow down your ride to make up for his Talon, which can be a fun car. -

HELP!! Front SUBFRAME bushing bolts..
I have pulled 3 subframes recently from SHO's, on all I just used the 18 or 19mm sockets on the bolt, and the nut stayed in the frame, it should have some sort of ****** on it to hit, and resist for putting in, and taking out the bolt, I did not even have to touch the nut, in either of the 12... -

Am i right on not putting my ypipe on yet?
That is good, and I did not mean any harm, just that it had to have had warning signs for a while before lifting 4"'s. I figure that was probably in the time frame of the order, mine was 2 weeks. But did not mean any harm, just thought 4" of lift was funny, and dangerous to your cv's and... -

(Dont Let my SHO DIE)
If you are the kind of person who can change your own clutch sucessfully, you could save it for a lot less than the $$ they said. I am asumming that the eng, trans are in good shape, and interior of the car, and body are worth saving. You can come across some amazing deals on sho's, you could... -

any differance in gen I springs/struts, gen II?
I am wondering if putting in the springs and struts from an 89 would have any benefit in my 93. I am looking to lower it, and get some better handling. The struts from the 89 are only a year old, springs are not sagging, car only has 100K, well cared for. The 93 has good pieces, but curious...- texas hot rodder
