im down in the clunks...

ok like the title says... ive got the clunks along with the lumber wagon feeling... but hey what do you expect for 40k miles on sportlines... is there a cheaper place to buy the fe5 struts than gmparts direct? they are really cheap there. also why does one side cost more than the other? lol

ok if the ss/tc struts give the ss/sc a noticeable handling difference... i assume there is no comparrison to the stock struts on my 2.2

holy ****!!!!! that company is awful damn proud of those things!!!! also gmparts direct is still cheaper than ced.com as much as i would like to help sponsors... i go with who helps my wallet... i am getting rack spacers from ottp though

ok another question i seen the fe5 isolators i believe... will those gain me anything?

ok im penny pinching here... im buying both rear and left front from gmpd and the right front from ced. total cost is 343.5* a little cheaper to do it that way since the complete thing shipped from ced is 370.17 and complete shipped from gmpd is in between the 2 prices dont have it wrote down. not too bad and leaves me with 587 to put towards my turbo project
