Sorry for the additional questions but im very interested. What coiloers/struts and who installed it? I will probably move back to Washington sometime this year and will happily go with air if this gets rid of my vibrations. Thanks!
its basically a universal kit but the rear do need to be modified. people usually just sent their shocks to uas and have them modify the shocks (ie cutting down and adding mounting brackets).

Sorry for not responding sooner. But yes i used OEM struts and did the install myself with the help of one of my buddies. Feel free to PM me with any questions, i may see them easier. haha
Also, using OEM struts, you dont need any modifications. They give you the brackets for the install. You only need to have coilovers modified, if you go that route. Which i will be doing eventually.

I want to do the spacers you came up with X187 but am afraid of damaging the speed sensors during the install process

ron (lextronics?) has/had a awd 300 on air and he said he had no problems.
you wont damage the sensors if you center it. like i mentioned even when you pull the axle back through, you can turn the rotor and see if the ring hits the sensor. once everything is tight again, the rings wont move.

My GS 300 makes a squeeking sound when I turn the wheel. Somtimes even when I'm just going down the road. It's coming from somewhere in the wheel well. I know it's not the brakes they we just replaced last week. Anyone have any idea's it's making my OCD crazy
