well the creaknig was do to the guy lowering the car on eibach sportlines (1.8 inch all around). So the stock shocks were bottoming out. I'm not exactly sure what the creeking was, but when i took my stock shocks out, the rod was bent from bottoming out so much, pretty awful.

that's good that it hasn't been modified. I would get it, it will be alot of fun and it's being sold really cheap.
