    Bellingham guys on coilovers?

    Hey, I was wondering if anyone up in Bellingham is riding on coilovers, and if so, would you mind giving me a ride? In the next few months I plan on getting coilovers but I have no idea what kind of spring rates I am looking for.

    Thanks,
    Joe

    I'm not too far from the 'ham (I do go up there occasionally) and my GC's just showed up a couple of days ago

        I REALLY wish I could Nando, but I work in Issaquah (Bellevue area) on the weekends. Brave, I'll have to meet up with you sometime. What rates did you go with?

        Do you have any free time Nando? Maybe I can take you out to lunch or something.

            I work down in Issaquah on weekends at Fred Meyers. I go to Western up here in Bellingham, Tuesday/Thursday I am busy from 1pm-2pm and free the rest of the day, and I have my car up here so I can drive around to wherever.

              I went with 350/475 and it's for a 318iS.

              I should have it on the road soon, hopefully less than a week.

              Have you worked at that Freddy's for a while? There used to be a really clean white e30 that parked in the lot a few years ago when I worked in Issaquah.

                that's fairly soft, but with a light car you can get away with less spring.

                there's 2 fred meyers in bellingham, and you work way down there?

                  Yeah, I'm cool with a softer setup, I can always change it later if needed.

                  There's only one Freddy's in Issy, though.

                    I got a huge raise by going to Issaquah, the managers are awesome, my family and girlfriend live in Issaquah so I'm down there anyways.

                      damn you drive down to Issaquah every weekend to work at freddy's?!

                      I can give you a ride in my car when your here on weekends if you like, I'm on a pretty stiff rate 550/700.

                        That would be awesome, do you live on the plateau? I'll be down there this weekend if you are around.

                        Like I said, I'm home often anyways to see my family/gf, and Freddies pays a lot for a college student, so meh.
