1- Its functional
2- It took much thought to do.

check this out what you guys think





i think that set up would f*ck up your diff. You shouldnt be running that set up unless u are using the same tires all around. like evasive motorsports rocks 18x10.5+15 front and a 18x9.5+12 rear but same size tires. Someone correct me if im wrong but.....im pretty sure thats doing to F*CK ur sh*t up....

Its not functional. The torque split on an evo is 50/50 no matter what. RWD cars mainly use staggered setups to help traction at the rear wheels. Staggered setups can also promote understeer at the limit.

M3this,
Nice 335! Very clean!

Now, I live in So. cal, but I often go to Spring Mountain Raceway in Pahrump. I'm going out on a limb here by saying that those awesome pictures were taken off the Blue Diamond Highway?? It looks familiar from my drives in Vegas.
