Suspension installed!

["Matt Cleland" <cleland@stlnet.com>]

I got the new suspension installed today, Bilstein Sports / Neuspeed Sport
Lowering springs.  Thanks to all of you who helped (especially Uwe for the
detailed instructions).

I figure it took about 4.5 hours to do all 4 corners.  It would have taken a
bit less except we broke a spring compressor and had to run out to AutoZone
and get a new one.

First impressions are good, the car wasn't lowered as much as I thought it
might be, but it looks SCHWEEET anyway.  I practiced driving around the
neighborhood without braking on the corners.  It drives almost like it's on
rails now.  Ride is not harsh, but definitely a bit tighter than before.

I like it, and recommend it to anybody.  The install is nearly trivial, just
make sure to have the right tools on hand.

Anybody in the market for a full set of stock 98 GLX shocks/struts/springs?
