Welcome to the site. Your color is Flamenco Black Pearl, and stay away from the Inspire badging. The CG chassis was never badged as an Inspire.

As for everything else, just keep it clean. Search the site if you have questions. There is no question that you could ask that hasn't been covered here.

I would deff recommend doing at least a mild drop, I live in Hartford and I'm on coil overs, and I'm sure my roads are no worse than yours. If you don't lower it at least a little, nothing else will really look right.

Enjoy your stay, and good luck with the car. Looking forward to seeing some progress.

^ I suggest not going the whole spring/shock combo. Save up for a set of full Coilovers and you won't regret it.

what did you go with coils or springs
edit: just read you have the Skunk2 Lowering Spring
btw thanks for the visual .. im guessing thats like a 2 or 1.7 inch drop.... thats what im looking for
did you have to get diffrent shocks or did you stay with the stock ones and how is the ride comfort


Why didn't you just swap MT tranny in there?
parents are paying for it so .... they said im geting an auto.... im not ready for a man either i dont know how ot drive one ... yes i could learn .... but its not right for me... i thought about it for a long time tho ... but school starts monday and i dont think i have the time for that
