Default ooops....

Well last night some jackas* cut me off while i was driving the idiot was probably drunk he was driving in the bicycle lane for ever so when he cut me off i had down shifted hard and braked in the rush of the moment accidentally knocked it into neutral maybe even reverse but didn't here the stuttering that would have sounded if it was in reverse anyways tried to pop it pack into drive and did but couldn't get no response out of the throttle just the engine revving with no go, finally after a few seconds and the car slowing down it responded everything seems fine just wondering if anyone has any if puts, everything happened so fast just didn't wanna rear end some jack as* and hurt my baby.

Well also that picture that everyone uses of that albatross white xfire anyone no what kinda suspension is used on it cause thats the ride height i am looking for thanx guys appreciate it out.

doesn't sound like you did any big damage; you would know it if the car caught reverse while you were moving forward. be careful --

and punctuation is your friend --

emo13jw, that has to be just about the king of all run-on sentences.

For a nice ride height, ride quality that won't beat you up, and decent handling, I recommend the Eibach Pro Kit. I cannot speak from experience on the Crossfire, but previous cars that I've owned had Eibach progressive rate springs, and they were great. Good roll control, and the decent ride quality are attributes of progressive rate springs (spring pressure increases with jounce distance traveled).

If you do put them on, make sure to torque everything to spec, use loctite, and get the car aligned RIGHT AWAY at a shop within spitting distance of your home. If you don't know what you are doing or have to drive a ways to get to a good alignment shop, then I recommend you take it in and have it done professionally.
