    Stock Shift Times?

    Hey everyone. OK when I was getting my car tuned (04CompG) I was told by PRJ that my 1-2 shift was sloppy. I can feel and hear the engine rev a little bit when I drive aggressively during that shift, so I wasn't real surprised to find out. Anyway, I'm preparing myself to take the car into...

    I've found what look to be a good deal on some slightly used Eibach Pro Kit springs that will fit a 2004 grand prix. Anybody have any input on the performance of these? If I was to get them I would surely have them on stock rims and tires. I'm told they lower the car 1.0" - 1.5". I honestly...
