Yea... I really like the way its settled down upto now (but I need to work on adjusting the shock levels... its way too stiff right now for me - I can feel every freaking bump! (set at 3 front/5 rear)

I was going to have it cleaned up for the meet, but a number of circumstances kept me from doing so... I will be taking it to a carwash soon though and it will looking fucking mr. sparkle when Its out.

I'll be buying the lip when Im ready to repaint the car... that might be coming at the end of the summer ...

springs were straight from eibach, and the shocks were straight from KYB. All new.

same ol' steering wheel, just ripped off the old leather that was hanging around. Looks much better now .

Hell yea, and I still want it stiffer. I'm thinking of getting the D2 coilovers with the custom spring rate of 800+. They say it's suppose to compete with the Flex system, but we'll see. First my motor, then back to suspension.

I honestly think the 4/8 setting isnt bad at all. It's not THAT rough, and it handles like a beauty.

Are the roads in Cali bumpy? How does the ride feel on 4/8?
I'm currently in 3/6 and the ride feels straight...but could be better.

The road aint that bad. I like to feel every lil thing on the road. The more harsh I feel the ride, the bigger the smile. I hate driving my lil bro's Passat, thing feels like a fucking boat. Everytime we go for a ride, I show him all the body roll in the thing, it's hilarious.

If you're willing to sell, I'll buy your suspension off of you. I'm dying to give my car a drop.

Danm, same thing happened to me today. Now I gotta wait till Tues. to finish.

Car looks stupid, lowered in the front, stock in the rear.
Ran out of time, and only got the rear rotors on, so I'm dropped in the front with rusty rotors, and stock height in the rear with shiny new rotors. It's a work in progress
