Just polyurethane bushings for the front sways? I assume it makes the car much more flat through the corners? I've never owned a sedan with a upgraded RSB.

Not sure if I said hey to you guys before, but I'll say it anyway... hey, what's going on? I own a 2G TL base. Just browsing the forums & found this awesome HR thread & since I'm in Williamsburg, it's perfect. Are there any meets coming up soon around HR?

Yes x2

The bigger rear sway on a front heavy car like ours makes it much more neutral handling, You're able to rotate the car alot easier that way.

And btw happy awesome box(es)? are on the way from the amazon!

Im actually in Richmond, but I try to make it to as many meets in the MD/VA/NC area. As long as the weather is good and I don't have to work, Ill most likely be at the meet.

Okay, back up a little. I haven't been on AZine in a bit because my laptop finally died. What's this C&C? I live in Williamsburg & I know exactly that address. It's right around the corner from my house. I work right down the road at Mega Auto Spa. You guys should come get your car washed over there. It's right next door to where you all are meeting. I will b there on saturday right before I have to go to work. I hope it gets delayed, so I can stay the whole time the following saturday.

Cool! I think the rain won't start till the afternoon, because of the 50% chance. So I'll definitely be there.

Sorry to hear about your laptop. The Car & Coffee is just a little mini car show every third Sat. They have it right in that shopping center with a couple of places to get coffee....hence the coffee part. Here's a link to it....
http://www.carsandcoffeewilliamsburg.com/. Mega Auto Spa huh....if you all do hand jobs......I mean hand WASH jobs, I'm in!
