the hose mod if im not mistaking is to remove the rubber bushing(isolator) at the top of your shocks. Then put a piece of rubber hose on that first circle of the coil spring. Basicly what you are doing is getting rid of the thick stock top bushing. That will drop like 1" or so. Then you put the hose to create a new bushing so its not metal to metal. I'm not sure if you can do it in the front struts. I know it works for the back.

I had lowering springs on the back. BMR i believe. The ride was rubbing every single speed bump. I got rid of them. I have eibach in the front but they are kinda of stiff. I will probably change them for regular stock height when I need new struts.

thanks for the info..
but im thinking.. if i do the hose mod is the back of the car lower than the front? or its just gonna look the same height?

i hope the stranos look good..
i did not like the eibachs at all

Go to the Camaro section. There are a few threads there with lowered Camaro pics already. Here I found one but search through, there are more.
