How is the ride?
In my GTP when they installed the Eibachs and GR2's they installed a 'anti-pogo'(?) or something like that to prevent that gokart like feel when you hit cracks/bumps in the road.
Supposed to make it right comparably with the stock height.

Just beautiful, sir. I (obviously) have a Black SSEi, and I am hoping and saving to make my next car a G8. Black, of course. Wow, do those two look good side-by-side. Thanks for the pictures!

the ride is good, more harsh then stock, but I expected that with 18" and a lower stance. however after letting it sit for as long as I did the handling has gone to *shoot*, I'll have to have my friend that does alignments and stuff look everything over for me.
