pwmin Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 not to be rude, but all's i gots to say is the gen 1.5 rear c/o's are junk. the coil and the flange arent flush, so they make all sorts of noises. i modified them to work on my gen 1 and they are noisy unless the coil is turned just right. my friend pretty much gave them to me cause they annoyed the hell out of him and he only drove the car around the block with them. enough of that. however, if they are willing to sell just the upper mounts for the rear and they arent noisy i may be interested. btw, the new website is SO much nicer than the old one. the koni inserts? how are you getting a hold of them and are they adjustable?

My cousin has only owned the business for 2 years, and the guy before him had alot of bad templates and bad product. When i worked for him we were constantly finding ways to fix and improve things. He even bought a Grand Prix just to test stuff on, so i'd imagine it is getting better, also, he'll special order things, like the whole front mount on rear, since its all hand made, He'll just have 4 front mounts made.

94CutlassSLCoupe Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 Those pictures have to be 2nd gen stuff...the bolt pattern isn't right for a 1st gen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalejw3 Posted November 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 Those pictures have to be 2nd gen stuff...the bolt pattern isn't right for a 1st gen He uses one for the picture, most likely a second gen. If you order a first gen he just has the laser cutter cut it with the first gen bolt pattern. The picture just lets you know what it will look like.
