            Very nice 318is. What part of Ga are you in? I actually thought about going to get that car but when i talked to the guy it sounded a little iffy.

                        Middle GA right now. Yea like I said I think the PO had the right intentions, he just lacked any technical skill.

                        Thanks for all the comments!

                          i've been reading up on your car and that camaro improv is awesome! thanks for the heads up on that. i had one question though.. while i was looking at the photos, particularly profile ones, would be possible to lower the rear so that it's the same height as the front..?

                            The rear is noticeably lower than the front.

                              i was just referring to the whole car being parallel to the ground. not the distance of the rear arches to the wheel. :D

                                Ah. Well you could always not cut a front coil off the H&Rs. That'd leave zero rake I think.
