K well, I just got my Ground Control Coilovers, going to put them on next weekend im thinking. Anyways, besides upgrading my shocks & struts, is there anything else I am going to need to do? I already plan on getting an alignment after I put them on, but I am wondering if I need any sort of chamber kit, or anything else? Thanks in advance guys!

i notice you said you have the ground controls, well if you upgrade on struts make sure you get the right struts because i know ground control make them specifially for agx, koni and stocks struts. just make sure you get the right struts, i heard you can mod it to fit, if you do get the wrong struts. cause i am ordering ground control soon but i have to get a certain kinda that is made for the agx's. so just keep that in mind when looking for struts i would email ground control and ask them. also about the camber kit go to www.spcperformance.com theywil run you about 80-90 shipped to your house. for front and rear camber kit but i would just order the rear cause the front you can adjust a little the rear you cannot without the camber kit.

thanks for hte info everyone, really appreciate it. Now you mentioned what struts would work - well, right now im not exactly overflowing at the pockets with cash, so I was planning on riding out on the stock struts untill i cant take it anymore. Will the stock work the the GC's? Let me know, thanks guys. And I think I will just get that chamber kit.... Think I should get the front kit as well? Or would it be worth it?

What the heck is a chamber kit? I realize there's a possibility of it being a typo or misunderstanding but just in case I'd like to know what a chamber kit is. Not trying to be funny here, so no funny ideas Kho 8)

yes but you still need the rear ones because you have ground control and depends how low you were planning on going also. i am not going that low with my ground controls cause i am getting a body kit. i will peobably drop it around 2 inch max. i just want to be able to raise it a little higher in th winter cause when i put the stocks on the lower is going to be lower than w/ my 20's.
