Re: H&R spring install
It's not that bad. The worst part about the job is how much you have to compress the springs to get them on and off. Another interesting part was trying to get the rear springs over the lower rubber insulator. I lubed mine with dish detergent and it eventually went, but it was a pain. Before you tak...

Re: 9c3 in Iowa.
It's worth 17-18K to someone who really wants a 9C3.No Moa wrote:What realistically should it bring? He is not giving up the reserve, No BIN price. I hate to waste bidding time if the reserve is rediculous.

Re: When replacing rear springs, what else should be done?
Check the lower spring isolators/insulators. The ones on my 5K mile car were a little beat up, so I can imagine a higher mileage car needing replacements.

Re: Driving in "manual" mode 9C3
Mine 9C3 only automatically downshifts to 2nd in manual mode also. Are G8s also like this? I kind of like it, since if you don't come to a full stop, 2nd gear is low enough and 4th is 4:1, which is way too low of a ratio if you're still rolling. On the off chance that you need first, just select it ...

Re: Lower Dash Insulator Panels
Thanks for the reply, that answers my question. There is a difference down there between 2011's and 12-13's due to the airbag. I compared my glove box to a G8, and they are different also. I still might be able to get it to work with some help from Mr. Dremel :) I'm curious, my glove box came with ...

Caprices on Maui
I didn't think I would see any Caprices in Hawaii, but I have seen three on Maui (unless I keep seeing the same car). I saw none on the Big Island. I'd like to take a look inside this one to see if it's really a 9C3. http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj177/picswamp/Mobile%20Uploads/20161015_132541-...

Re: wrecked my caprice last week...
Are the V6s really worth that much less than the 6.0s? I don't know because I never priced them. Maybe a better plan would be to buy another 6.0 car, put your engine in it, and sell the other 6.0 and transmission. Just thinking out loud here. It might be something to look into.

Re: MMMMMM sidewall
Did you have to change rotors, calipers, or caliper brackets to fit the 15" wheels or did they just bolt right on?
