So I cant post in classifieds because i don't have enough posts.. I just got back in another F-body after my last one got rolled. short but long story.. Anyhow.. I no longer have my 01 WS6 that i posted a while ago.. Now have an 01 1SC Camaro SS. Want to start with the suspension because im now hooked on auto-x once again!!

Anyhow.. seeing as i cant post in classifieds.. In about a month ill be looking for some KONIS and stranos.. Possibly ground control coils.. If anyone is going to be upgrading or downgrading for that matter. Please let me know. I would like to work something out.. I just got some strano sway bars.. and picking up an APHR here in a week or so.. Just wont have the big bucks for the konis till beginning of july..

ANd a couple vids of me in action..

Cool deal! Didn't know I could do that! Appeciate you moving this for me! I'll remeber that for the future!

Post your location, helps a lot. I have some 4th gen Koni SA's that might have 100 miles on them and 2 autocross's that I bought new last year. I personally like the 3rd gen Konis better, but it's drivers preference. PM me when you are ready.

So I found my rear shocks that I'm going to get. Still need a front set and springs or coilovers. Lots of views but no pm's. I'm serious about buying this stuff. And will be purchasing by the end of the month (June)
TrakJunky
Still looking for front konis. Going to get my coilovers direct from GC.

Have you tried checking here? They're even on sale.

I think the front Koni's need to be modified to use coil overs.
TrakJunky
Yes I've looked through stranos catalog many times. I have strano sways on my car right now. I just won't have the money to buy the shocks until after the sale. And he's out of stock at this point in time. So if I can get some used than so be it.

Or, you need one of these:

And I have one that I've been thinking about selling off to someone who needs it (I don't own a 4th gen any longer). I never used it, it's just been sitting in my garage.
TrakJunky
And what does that do exactly?

It's a tool that you can use to loosen the nut on the bottom of the Koni tophat, remove it, install the coilover sleeve and replace the hat, so no hacking up the hat is necessary.

TrakJunky
Oh I see. Looks like I'm going to need one of those. Thanks for the info. Be sure to get in touch when the time comes!
TrakJunky
Bump it up still need front shocks.

I may have some used front DA's. They're ancient and haven't been on a car since '00. I'll let them go cheap since they may need a rebuild.
