Almost. Evo's don't have struts in the back. Our rear rates are at least as high as the fronts.

EDIT: oh you're talking about the suby zzyzx guys. yeah, you're right.

Yeah, I knew that the rear rates don't correlate between the two cars so that info isn't very useful to you is it?

Well it is since I know the motion ratios for both cars.

James,

Don't mean to compromise your set-up, but you were running 450 rear at Nat's. Out of all the STI's I looked at, yours was the lowest. Thought it was interesting considering how well the combination worked for you and Ryan.

Rick,

It looks like you guys are kicking *** in the '03 this year. Any big changes in the off season? Everyone is destroying the M3's this weekend.

Looks like another BSP blowout too..beating ASP, CSP, SS, etc...

I've got all of the parts off of the car that I'm replacing the bushings on. I'm going to get those done this coming weekend. Then I just have to put all of those back on, install the suspension, align it and do the brake pads. A lot to do in a weekend but it should be doable.
