The Pre-Order sets are goping into production in 2-3 weeks. The boat ride is @ 3-4 weeks, unless there are any customs delays. 7 weeks out is a realistic ETA from now. If you Pre-Ordered already, we expect to be shipping these to you in @ 7 weeks.

If you did not yet place your Pre-Order, you have less than 2 weeks to get it in...

thread started in January (edit: December), coil overs not ready until August

does that seem a bit crazy to anyone else? It's not exactly a twin screw swap. I mean you can make a baby in that much time......

The project was originally on the front-burner and ready to push the button. However, due to lack of interest from Cobalt/G5 owners, combined with higher levels of interest from other vehicle owners, the Cobalt project kept getting bumped. This is also why we are initially only bringing in enough sets to cover the Pre-Orders and a few more. Once the first 25 sets are on the street and demand grows, we will start carrying more.

Thanks.

No problem. I wish the enthusiasm was there to front-line it all along. We sponsored the TPR Magazine Cobalt SS and they love the coil-over set-up and the Pillow Ball Mount Camber Plates. Sometimes, it just takes a few people using the product to share their experience and that opens the floodgate. Other times (like this), it takes more.

Many people are in the same boat. A few guys have been sending us a few hundred here and a few there. They call it layaway. I think they just don't want their wives to find out...

We are flexible and understanding when it comes to things like that.

They rather have people buy a coil over system then the springs I'm sure. I don't blame them, coil overs is the only way to go IMO.

I emailed the contact address at the Gravana site and never heard back about where things stand for the Redline at this point. I don't think any of us redline guys would mind drilling into things if we were able to get some reinforcement plates or something to help get these things retrofitted. Regardless, the Redline needs support, too!

it says on the website that ride height will vary from 0 - 3 inches. is this for front and rear? and you can adjust the drop to somewhere in between also? just wanted to clarify, thanks for bearing with me.

seriously. much long awaited. theres better ride smoother and softer than a caddy on the softest setting, and handle like its on Enzo on the stiffest settings.

can you post some pics of the rear pieces, with these kits nobody posts the rear pices, and it always ends up being a spring and adjustable sleave.
