    Why the hell would a strut need to be cut? That's beyond me. I could take a look at it and probably do it though if you are in the atlanta area.

    not the strut that needs to be cut, i think its the bump stops. but, the directions im reading are for a year 2000 and up sunfire....ive got a 1996. Idunno if its different or not, but i dont think i'll hafta cut anything, actually, cuz it didnt specify ''some modification required'' on the NOPI e-cat, like it does for certain other coilover setups. If theres no cutting required, and if i can get my hands on a spring compressor for free, then this job SHOULD be a piece of cake!

    Does anybody know where i can borrow a spring compressor *for free*??

    Go to auto zone, you have to pay a $40 deposit and you get all of it back when you bring it back, all you need is the receipt.
