Ground Control (Group Purchace List) Very close!

[rgd]

I just got off the phone with Ground Control, I spoke to the owner and the Project Mgr for our kits so this is good information. They are dangerously close to being ready to ship. They are waiting on one piece that is on back order with one of their suppliers, but all of the GC parts are on the shelf. I have been asked to start a list for the GP so they will have an idea of what to kit and get ready for when the last part arrives. Hopefully by the time we get a comprehensive list of buyers together the last part will have arrived.

To my knowledge the quoted price has been $499.00, I don't know if the price drops depending on interested buyers.

Dreamin has spring rates of 500# (front) and 550# (rear). Those are the spring rates they are planning around. They also have 600# in stock. If anybody wants 650# or higher you should indicate that too.

They can't say for sure when, but soon, very soon. 1for each corner of my car

I'm in for a set (500lbs front/550lbs rear sounds good, but I no suspension expert). And I just wanted to make sure that this kit has the spacers for the rear nivomats and everything else needed to lower the car.

Somebody's going to have to become a Vendor.

[DILLIGAF]

Not again,Well,I want coil overs,I'm in with cash in hand to the supporting vendor who puts this GP on.How's that Urb?

[dannystang]

Little confused here...

EDITED** as to not give any vendors any ideas.

Am I missing something?

Dreamin, don't you WANT new shocks when doing coil-overs?

Not that I think my fg2s are no good.

[Dreamin]

The coil-overs you're thinking of have shocks and adjustable springs... the GC kit is adjustable springs, it uses the factory (FE4 or FG2) shocks.

rgd: I'll call GC tomorrow... i've been telling them to become a supporting vendor since Jan!

Dreamin,
Please remind me again:
-these C/O drop the car and GC provides the spacers to fool the FG2's ?
-the ride and handling are improved over stock springs?
- with the hotchkiss bars are new endlinks nessesary and which ones should we use?

Thanks dreamin for the info!
I think i would like them!!!!'

-Yes, car can be dropped to your spec from 0" to 1+". Adjusting height later is very easy.
-You choose spring rate (when ordering the kit). GC, WW, and I recommend 500lbs front / 550lbs rear with either shock.
-Handling is improved, lean is reduced, brake dive is reduced, etc.
-Ride improvement is subjective: the ride is a *little* firmer, more solid... you feel potholes, bumps, etc more. So Luna would say "improved"... my wife says "i dont remember this road being so bumpy" (really torn up road in downtown SF)
- With hotkiss bars, if you lower 0.75" or more you need the Z06 front sway bar links. Stock rear links are fine. http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums...-problem.html?

Finally, I do not know if they have built spacers to fool the nivomats, that was their original plan, but I dont know if they finished that part... might have to still go with WW's mod. Maybe WW could build a 100 sets and sell them to GC??!
