Eibach, and most springs and such are interchangable between xa's and xbs.

Not positive about coilovers though.

What I was told about the struts and shocks is that if you lower it with low miles, the seals in the strut "break in" in that lowered position... i.e. It should be fine.

If you put alot of miles on your car at stock hight, and then lower it. There is a better chance the struts will fail.

I dunno how factual this is, but it sounds like good BS to me.

Since this is my first post in tha Plahouse, Gongrats to Chad on the wheels and springs.

ANd I have to say, I'm impressed with the wheels for The Brides new ride. Very nice! (and thats tough for me to say, I work for a competing wheel company!)

Oh yeah that Llama video is a train wreak... I love it.

Peace and Chicken grease

bang bang bang.....hear ye, hear ye, bang bang bang

I am here to announce that this weather is toooooooo freakin cold. I just saw some snow flakes. You may ask "what is this "snowflake"?" A snow flake my dear friends is a little piece of ice that if viewed under a microscope looks like a very cool pointy chinese star. Now snow flakes are very rare in the DFW area, usually we see the cousin of the snowflake, sleet. I thought you all should be informed. now time to go to the former pooty's playhouse and inform them over there as well.

Thank you for your wasted time in reading that.

Btw Jimmy, the 3fiddy is badass.

I did a little drift around a corner by the hotel and was going to pull into the parking lot and do a quick donut but there were 3 cops in the lot.

That would have been pretty ironic to get a ticket on our first night.....lol.

And it does sound like pure sex when you nail it. :D
