    new egt guy

    Whats up my name is cole. I have a '93 egt that i'm messing with. I got on this site to learn about my car, mainly how to mod the bp. I am painting the car now, I've shaved the roof gutters, door handles, antenna, emblems, wing, frenched front plate, and a few other tricks like a wrx sti hoodscoop. It has 17s and cut springs, thats about it. I have an extra motor, and plan to eventually spray, maybe turbo.:microwave I will get pics when its done.

              There the cheapest i found. You know i'm not too worried about handling if i'm cuttin coils. Anyways there $120 out of summit 0-3" drop. im assuming they just replace the springs and i use my old struts. I want that go cart ride ha ha.

                searchebay youll find them cheaper than 120 and you should worry about handling not just looks based on safety.

                    I don't trust those ebay sleeve kits to much. I know a couple people ride the BOMZ ones without much hassle.

                    I've heard of Matrix sleeve kits before, if you're spending $120, might as well just get some Weapon Rs ($140), they're a little softer than the Matrix and BOMZ sleeve kits. Also i THINK the coils are a bit longer too, so a lil better ride. Either way it's going to be bouncy.
