Im building my car and dont have have the $$$ for full coilovers. What are your opinions on ground contol with stock shocks? I assume their not that great, but i just need to know if i'll be able to roll on them with out blowing my shocks for atleast a year.

That depends on the spring rates of your springs and how low you drop it.

Your stock shocks wont last a year then. Also, I figure your GC springs are somewhere in the 300 range, which is way too stiff for what stock shocks can dampen. Your best bet is to just hold off on the coilovers until you have sufficient funds to get a set of performance shocks.
