yeah, the front can go lower, actually both front and the rear can go lower than now, and it rides very smooth. Vincent, you need to get a kit and repaint the car now...lol

Nice! I'm actually talking to John right now about your setup. Kennedy is a suspension master.

love the 98-00 tails, its getting rarer by the day. The rear camber is nuts. Do you daily drive this or what? I cant imagine going through tires that fast. Its like paying for a ***** and only getting a BJ.
