springs are usually about between $120 - $140 a pair and a camber kit is a different story.............thats what costs the most usualy

im getting king spring put in my VT at 12:00 today. Its lowering it about 1 1/2 inches but all i realy want is the rigidness, not the rolly polly of the standard springs.
overall its costing $450 fitted with a pair of things that go around the strut tower

[Moe]

cool can you send some pics of it. before and after shots

[chevy_big_block_bro]

yep. does anyone know what the k mac things do
I think thats what they're called.
They go on the top of the struts

the K-MAC thing-os absorb road noise and vibrations...get a camber castor kit, saves the life of your tyres and provides a smoother ride, feels a bit quicker to me also as your tyres are straight, aligned and ready to rumble...ive put the full kit on mine and lowered her, knowing someone only cost me $550 for the whole job, front, back, castor kit, k-macs and all, sooooo i dont know the general retails price...definitely get the camber kit...you'll be surprised how much your tyres last for one

[chevy_big_block_bro]

where do i get them from or who makes them

sorry to sound stupid .. but what exactly is "front, back, castor kit, k-macs and all" .. shocks AND springs? camber kit?

[chevy_big_block_bro]

here it is 1st one is it now, 2nd one is it before the 3rd shot shows the standard height of a VY SS. its prety high when you think about it.
i didnt want the mud flaps to rub on the road so its not ultra low but im happy with the height. Its more for the rigidness

[vy_pete05]

makes a nice difference there chevy...how much did it end up costing you and what exactly did you end up getting done there champ??

[VT_Mania]

yeah chevy I am lookin into lowering my VT and your height looks sweet as. Would you be able to get part numbers for your springs??

Also, what is the height difference from the guard to the top of the wheel front and back.

Cheers

[chevy_big_block_bro]

I just went to the performance place and he attacked the car with a tape from the centre of the wheels and asked roughly where i wanted the car to sit.

From the bottom of the guard to the center of the 17" wheel with 17/45 tire is 31.5 mm
front is 33 cm.
in not sure what sort of spring they are (low, super low ect) or if they are a custom height.
Ok part numbers.
because i wanted a specific height he has mixed and matched.
Front is KHFL47SL Spring F Low VR-VZ
Rear is KHRL127SSL Spring UTE S/Low

Save yourself some hassle and alot of tyres and just don't do it. If you really must get a VX2 or upwards, they can take it.

[chevy_big_block_bro]

ive just put t sets of camber kits in the rear of my 98 VT after getting king spring super lows. Ive booked in for 3:15 today to get allignment and camber kit adjusted at tire place.
The camber kit took 6 hours to fitt on a hoist, dont bother doing it with stands on driveway.
Ill let you all know how it handles after its adjusted

Them springs are just lows, will only require 1 camber kit in rear, autobarn sell them for $90
