1 year warranty. After that, if any strut blows you get a brand new one for only $90 shipped.

awesome. When you plan to do this?
MyNeonSaysHi
Thats a good question. I want to do it soon. But I don't know when "snow season" will be over with. Does it snow much or at all in February? I need to find a website where it shows the average amount of snow for February in Kansas. Plus all this damn salt on the roads doesn't help either. After cleaning it that one day, its back to nastiness.

after feb it dies down though.

Sexy! How much did you pay for those? Where did you get them from? My car goes in the body shop this Monday to put the new doors on so I'll be looking for coilovers next.

I paid $900 shipped to my door without the "gimmick" they offer.

Found information on average snowfall. Closest place to us is KCMO. So I used that data. this is the average out of the most recent 68 years.


KANSAS CITY, MO

Looks like January gets the most snow.

I will hopefully be putting these on this weekend. I was going to be putting them on Sunday, but it had to snow out.

Anyways, I am glad I didn't. Because I am going to need shorter endlinks for the rear. Since the car is going to be lowered it changes the geometry of the suspension causing the swaybars to go lower. When this happens the endlinks are too tall.

this gives you an idea what I am talking about:

Blue = Swaybar Red = endlink

So I ordered a set of the Prothane shorter endlinks.
Might as well upgrade the sways I was thinking, but nah, not yet.

You'll like the prothanes, I have Energy Suspension on the zx2...and its awesome. I only have front/rear sway bars and one motor mount... its very noticable.

Yeah they have the energy ones as well. But they sell them on this weird site and shipping is like $15 via UPS ground for a set of damn endlinks! I wanted to get the energy ones as well cause then I could put an aftermarket sway bar on..someone told me I couldn't put an aftermarket sway bar on with these Prothane ones... I am really down with ModernPerformance.com. Really fast shipping. So I decided to go with the Prothane, they are black so they will match my coilovers too. lol
