The guy w/ the sti basically drives it daily... But his main focus is on auto-x. Aluminum shocks usually need to be serviced faster.. But when u are winning races who cares =)

1x with John Mueller (which sounds like a bump stop came loose)
1x with San Rafael Mitsubishi
I do not know if there are any others ? What is the feedback ?? Can we see about getting included in the poll as well for future reference ?
Went 1:28.2 at a test day at big willow and 1:22.8 during testing for the evom shootout 1:24.2 for the win at the event... Put some 50's on Dieters car and set fast time of the day with Dieter riding inthe car with me during our tuning set-up runs.
(this was after Dieter commented on how well the car rode!
I guess you can call me "converted!"

1:24? Oh...that was at streets, right? 1:24 at the Big Track is crazy fast...so I'll assume you are talking streets. Correct?

ha ha..that's fast, but at least believable. (.22 had me doubting BIG TIME)

I've been a passenger at 1:26 and change..uuhhh...very fast. Only managed 1:32 best time myself. Anything below the 1:30 mark is VERY respectable...kudos.

Hey Alex. Nahh...I'm staying in AZ next weekend, and after this last weekend I can't decide which car I want to track from this point forward...the S2K or the EVO. If it's the EVO I need bigger brakes and I'll probably stiffen the springs just a little.

Drop me a line when you are heading back out to the track, after sitting out for the last couple of years....it's time for me to dust off the transponder and GET BUSY!

Nothing about the John Mueller/RRE Buddy Club coil over setup on the RRE site. Was this setup abandoned in favor of the JIC FLT-A2s?

Anyone have more info on the Cusco Zero2R coilovers? I am close to buying set these. I need the coilovers for daily street driving and the occasional track day. I had a set of Tein SS coilovers and went back to the stock setup a week later. How is the build quality and adjustment with the Cusco suspension? Would they benefit with a larger rear sway bar? Would I be better off saving up for Ohlins?

Well I spoke with the folks at Vishnu about the Ohlins setup they have and I think I may just wait a few months till I can afford them. In the mean time I plan to add a rear sway bar for starters.
