I need to find some adjustable street shocks that i can put the pedal down with and stiffen up the ride a lot.

i placed Gabriel Hi Jacker air ajustable shocks, and the results are amazing. The whole car has stiffened up and the handling went up ten fold. the whole process only took about 2 hours and would have taken less if the original shock mounts had not been so rusted. The 2 hours included routing the air lines into a single hookup in the trunk of the car. the whole setup looks factory, gave my car a better stance, and the performace it needs. I have more control at higher speeds and my friend and i basically were able to do controlled slids around cones in an abandoned parking lot. I would greatly recomend the shocks to anyone who wants better performance, even for the extra safety of superb handling. Also the ride is in no way harsh or jagged and like i said the car is great. And the best part. they only cost $62 for 2 shocks, mounting hardware, air lines and connectors.

I also just put on some Gabriel Ultra Front struts that are nitrogen injected in addition to the pnumatic fluid. they are very nice and at 50 dollars a piece a pretty good addition. It took me about 2.5 hours to install both and if my car was not so old or if the original owners had actually worked on it it would have taken less time. Now the whole body is rigid and i can take sharp turns at 40mph and comfortable slide the car. They are amazing and i would recomend them to anyone
