Re: N00b: Stalker from AR
HA! This is what I figured I'd get. Waiting on "mullet" and "imbreeding" comments...
I've ridden in mustangs w/ lowering springs and they don't ride any better than my car, so why not cut 'em? Some day I may go back and do $500 drop spindles for the front and coilovers all around... but probably not.

Lowering springs aren't going to ride better but they don't fuck up your suspension like cut springs. they have a stiffer spring rate usually, and when you cut stockers, you are really messing up suspension geometry. shit wears out faster that way.
and dont even talk to me about the "mullet" comments. Look what I have for fucks sake.
second, put your skirts back on, get a different set of wheels and a better exhaust. then focus on some engine mods. the car could be sweet. but its not right now.

That car looks EXACTLY like I would it expect it too coming out of Arkansas.
Nobody is interested in your pep-boys special steel wheels that belong on a ford or chevy pickup truck, or a dirt track monte carlo. they look like shit on mustangs and always have.
secondly, why the fuck would you cut your stock springs? lowering springs are cheap and easy to install. Do it the right way or DON'T DO IT AT ALL.
The car looked better before you got ahold of it IMO.
*EDIT*
AND you took the factory skirts off and left the fucking holes just chilling there?

I've never been on a site that used rep before, but I think I've got it on now. Guess I'll find out, soon.
And I'm on VA site b/c I found a link to it on www.wheelwhores.com (I think. There or on the VWVortex). I just love the dope status thread and all the bullshit drama from the trolls on here.

ok, I'm gonna give you some advice. take it or leave it your choice.
Lowering springs aren't going to ride better but they don't fuck up your suspension like cut springs. they have a stiffer spring rate usually, and when you cut stockers, you are really messing up suspension geometry. shit wears out faster that way.

it's my d/d and I drive it like 8k miles/year. It's never going to see a racetrack.
I love the car on these "dirt track" wheels b/c it is kind of a redneck/white trash/retro. it's got a moonshine runner look and I dig it.
