SLP Suspension Just wanted to get some opinions from people on the SLP suspension pack found from SLP. Is this the OEM pack that came on the Camaro SS from 96-02?
Here is the link:

I have a 96 Z28 and I want to put this on my car if it's a good suspension package(appearance and functionality). If anyone has any other packs they would recommend please let me know.
Thanks

The SLP suspension package consisted of Eibach blue lowering springs x4, specially valved Bilstein shocks x4, and 32mm front and 21mm rear swaybar. This package was about $900 in addition to the cost of the base SS package.

I think ws6 store sells that package for about 750 new, no swaybars obviously. Also may check the classifieds here or ebay. Also, depending on locations you may be able to find some stuff local. I have both sways off my car hanging on the shop wall. Id sell but I aint shipping them so the buyer would have to be local.

I actually have the original SLP Eibach blue coil springs off of my car. They are in very good condition, removed with about 20,000 miles on my car. I replaced them with BMR Lowering Springs.
Here's a picture of them....
Let me know if you'd be interested.

I've done some searching on this matter and it seems like everyone has their own preference, but I'm getting some really mixed reviews on Koni. Koni is either praised or hated with no middle ground. Are Koni shocks better than the valved Bilstein? Money isn't an issue for me especially when I'm trying to make my weekend only car ride better. Previous owner already lowered the car, but it has a rough ride to it and I scratch on everything. Here is a picture of my ride.
Was the SLP suspension pack I mentioned above specifically made for 17 inch wheels and how low did the car sit if anyone knows? Originally I understood that it was the standard suspension package on all of the Camaro SS from 98-02 but now I understand it was an option.
If someone has a picture of their ride with this optional SLP suspension package I would appreciate it so I can make my mind up already.

Considering you could only get an SS with 17s (grey 10 spokes standard, grey or chrome ZR1 or chrome 10 spokes optional) I'd say it was designed with them in mind yes.

Here's a few of mine with SLP suspension. I did alter ride height a tad in back a few times over the years by adding some heater hose to the top and bottom of the coils to add a little height.
And yeah it still hooked up decently.....
