I also cant wait to get mine. My car is beating me to death with crappy Decarbons on front and Toyico Gas shocks on rear and those will be changed with Konis!!!!!!!

They are... LS1-pro-kits are 80-137, mine are 100-150 (with the 150 being the only working rate when the car is just sitting on the ground. The Eibachs tend to bleed some of the softer rate in to beginning of the working travel. And my springs are also not quite as low anyway.

I want/need these springs...Do you have any packages with recommended shocks?

Sam Strano

iTrader: (41)

I can work with you on a package, but at this time I don't have anything "pre made". Honestly I'm trying to avoid that because it sometimes leads to folks buying things that might not match their needs just right. I prefer to make sure the combination is as correct as can be for each person.

I'd be more than happy to recommend a setup to you if you can give me a call. I'd need to ask some questions to make you a proper recommendation.

sam more than likely around the mid of the month is when you should have them right?

Sam, I always wanted a 2003 Corvette Z06, but loved my 2000 WS.6 to much to pass it up. I want it to handle like the Z06 though. I'm saving up for your springs, koni 4/4's, 35/22mm sway bars, and adjustable panhard. Can I get close to the Z06 or will it still be way out of my league?

Sam Strano

They are very different cars.... But I can tell you that in 2006 when I won my 3rd ESP National Championship with basically the same parts (and not a lot else suspension wise). The winner of ASP was less than 2 seconds faster than I was over the course of just under two minutes of the totalled fastest runs.

Now, the Camaro is 400 pounds heavier, has less power, less rear tire, and 12% taller gearing than the Z06. Also the weight distribution isn't as good. So, yes an F-body can be made to handle extremely well but I can't guarantee you an "as good as result" because there are just things a Corvette is better for.

What I can guarantee you is the I can make the car drive 125% better in and make it more fun to drive.

Well it's been about a week since the last update which put the ETA around 2-3 weeks. So I have fingers crossed we see them in the next 1-2!!!

I know exactly when they'll be here when the tractor trailer rolls to my door.

I have a Strano setup and absolutely LOVE it and RECOMMEND it but having driven a couple C5/C6's no it will not go around a curve as fast IMO. Especially 100 mph plus the lighter Vette really shines. The brakes on the vette are also superior which is nice and really helps you get around a track.

I guarantee you though the Strano/Koni setup will put a big smile on your face and you will start looking for curves to hang

I just ordered some Strano Springs....WOOT! I'm stoked! Unfortunately I don't have the money for Koni's, so I'll be ordering KYB's from Strano in a week or two.

i would be ordering teh koni afte i came back from leave but recent engine work has changed my mind is all. so i wil wait till after deployent to buy them. hell i might even have them shipped to the boat. i cant wait to get this thing dropped

Sam Strano

iTrader: (41)

I have springs backordered right now, but there are springs left for sale out of what's coming in. The backorders ship obviously take priority and ship first, any remaining sets will be for general sale.

When I'm out, I'm out until more get made and shipped. I usually re-order @ the half-way point of what I get... that's almost here already.

The only way you can be sure of getting a set of springs off the incoming shipment is to order them ASAP.

I'm ordering the KYB's very soon to go with my stano's as well.

I ordered Strano Springs, Koni's and Moog parts from Sam a month ago...

The Koni's showed up on my front doorstep the next day, and the Moog's a few days later...
wow, that was quick, it impressed me, thanks Sam.

Sam answered all my questions and explained the fine details of installing the Koni's... he has excellent customer support.

I would definitely buy from Sam again...

I'm looking forward to the Springs.

Cheers,
Joe

Everybody I know that wants some suspension parts will get a recommendation to call Sam and ONLY Sam. I think we talked for about 45 minutes about pretty much everything and in the end I ended up placing my order for my Koni 4/4 shocks! Im damn excited to get them in and on so I can enjoy my car the way it was meant to be.
