I just got it Weds....I really like it a lot so far...After looking through this forum for the past week this is my list so far....Keep in mind I want to keep the warranty intact... Stage 1 upgrade (ordered) Goldline or Eibach springs (ordered both) Stubby Antenna (ordered) Front and rear sway bars, HID headlights and driving lights, Cross drilled rotors and low dust pads...Removed chicklets...Looking for more suggestions....Thanks...Al

 

Congratulations Al!
You're gonna love it.
I put over 2000 miles on mine since I picked it up last Tuesday.
Lot's of NH driving.

All I've done so far is de-chicklet but it seems we have similar wish lists.
Enjoy your new Heritage Hot Rod and to the forum.

BTW - What color is your SS?

 

skip the lowering springs, it will mess with the tuned suspension

 

Still waiting for the spring rates on the SS,,,then we willknow what to replace them with..
Let us know how the front Bar change goes as noone here has done this yet..looks to be a real bear considering the bar runs 'behind' the eng and has some length beyond the last bend so it wouldn
t be easy to snake thru..

 

I think tuned means comfy ride and sacrifice handling geared to the average consumer!!! Al....My SS is Black with Grey/Black interior....

 

From what I have seen here it sounds like the front bar is OK...the rear is the weak link. Maybe do just the rear first?

 

the most significant performance gains are to be had by a good driving school.

 

The rear bar is the weak link because it is non-existent.

 

thats a 10-4 on that,also I wouldnt lower it either, youll be replacing the front bumper and inter cooler and raditior soon, imho, I would love to lower mine for looks but it barley has enough clearance now as it is, it only clears bumper blocks by 1 inch now as stock

 

Not a problem...I just sold my lowered Viper GTS which I had 7 years and never hit the nose once....Al
