im sure this has been discussed a bagillion times, but i am in the process of geting a 99 LS and am trying to decide on a suspension setup. im not to worried about performance, more cosmetic and this point. im looking to slam it. and if u could post pics if its your car and u have the particular coilovers. thanks

You could do omni power. I've heard very good things about them. You could also do koni yellows with a H&R lowering kit, or Eibach Sportline...or tokico illuminas... If you don't care about performance, why coilovers? Why not just bag it?

Haha.

 

dont be cheap just save the cash, it will be worth every penny

 

good and cheap don't always fit in the same sentence. I vote do it right the first time. But if you want cheap, go eBay...lol

 

someone letting you know Tein SS ...they aint cheap but they're good...

skunk2 coilover will do....but stock shocks may or may be able to handle it

 

i am prob gonna go with the skunk2's. any recommendations on where to get them cheap. and thanks guys for your help

P.S. im not trying to be your typical ricer, i just wanna geta few things done realativley cheap. on my last G2 i wasted money on an expensive exhaust and intake before i even touched my suspension or did any serious engine mods.

nah... you gotta buy the scissors unless you steal it from your 2nd grade teacher

 

i haven't tried omni, but i used to rock skunk2 with koni yellows and honestly, i hated the ride, cornering, going through turns were fun, but the ride was bouncey as ****.....gurls complained, everyone complained....just my opinion...

 

get some cheap ebay coilovers and some kybs only about 365 400 tops

 

well he said he doesnt care about performance which is retarded, just ride on stock shokcs and get those piece of **** 40 dollar coilovers on ebay.

My first endeaver in lowering involved maxspeed coilovers and kyb agx struts.

Cheap coilovers
KYB AGX struts:

Never again. Never will I get cheap coilovers, or any for that matter, unless they're Tein.

Spend the money an do it right. I agree.

go with gc coilovers.. setup is nice and since you want it to be cosmetic.. its easy to raise and lower with their design.. the cheaper it is.. the more likely itll wear out over time, and you'll wish you hadnt said "cosmetic over performance".. your car could end up smelling like vomit

 

never heard of jc coilovers. Did you mean JIC's?

he said GC (ground control) unless he edited it... besides.. JIC usa products suck.. only the JIC japan products are good...

(basing my judgement on ONE case, yes just ONE)... when do you ever see a strut snap? i have never seen it except for on a soob with JIC usa ****
