I know this is a shot in the dark and didnt see any post with them for sale....but I think its time to start getting my Z up to par. I am looking for Canuck springs (I contacted them with no luck) or Eibachs. I may have to go with Sprints again....but was hoping not too. lol
Anyone have anything for sale for a '96?

I was looking too, ended up with Delcos. They are a bit too high and make it look like an AWD. Not a bad ride and not bad in the turns, bit hard to tell with how high the car is. An inch lower would have been nice. In other words I had no luck finding any Z26 springs.

Ya...I contacted them last week. They were nice enough to check but said that they no longer had them or the material to make them...whatever that means. lol

Maybe I can call them and see if I can get someone else to push it through. They said they never sold any of the ones they had for the 96.

Find a spring shop in the area, tell them everything about your car... Try and get it weighed if possible and I'm sure they can make you something to fit your needs.

Do not go with Sprints, the rears will sag.

Ya....the rears on my '89 sag with the Sprints. Would 96-04 Cavalier springs work for my 96 Z26?

No, they lighter in spring pressure and coil over in the rear.
