I hear about people on here all the time that lower their cars and think it's not low enough. So, I have started leaning towards GC coil overs or aerospeeds.

The only problem I have with coil overs is that they supposedly make some noise. Do you guys with them have a problem with it? SO, I was thinking.... if I put the sleve on the shock, and welded it to the shock, it would be FIRMLY in place, and then if I were to put on the actual mount that the spring sits on, and place a rubber washer or something on top of it, the spring wouldn't rattle or creak at all.

Awaiting your thoughts...

also, some E-bay coilovers look Ok... maybe...

i'm going to get some koni's to go with my gc's. i bought some monroe struts but they can't handle being lowered, so if your going to weld the sleeves to a strut (that's what i'm doing too) i wouldn't use stock replacement shocks, the adjustability is what you will need.

just trying to help. the ride quality sucks ass on stock shocks, i just hope it gets better with the koni's. hell, if they can keep me from bottoming out i'll be happy.
