^ Your a posting animal lately... getting some more free time around the office?

Thats good to know about the alignment, I always thought wheel size played a roll. Shows what I know...

 

Ah, I know a thing or two...they're not always right, but I know them!

 

27! You trying to build a drift machine!?

 

hahah. I had oem bilsteins and lowering springs, so it was a good bar to maximize that setup. And it worked out really well. But now that I'm running 11k springs in the rear, the bar has proven too much for me. I'm on the second setting, so I'll be moving it to full soft...unless someone is looking for a bar. I have to say that the car feels great with the rear end coming around. No understeer for sure!

 

If you still do not like the feel, go back to stock sway bar. It was one of the best thing I did on my car for handling last year, when running higher spring rates it is not necessary to run a beefy bar. At least that was my experience.

 

Exactly what I was thinking Mike. Either I find someone to trade for a 25mm, or I go back to my stocker!

 

nah, I have just a wee bit too much energy for a Monday morning.

 

WTF My car self destructed it self at 60k miles lol

so my car reached 60k miles last week and im thinking ok cool time to do my timing belt soon, well within minutes my front drivers side strut starts to clunk, my windshield cracks from one side to the other, i got pissed off and nailed it and i start seeing **** flying out of my exhaust, oh awesome is the catalyst materials from my 4 month old ultimate racing high flow cat, get home jacked up the car and my front endlinks were also broken.

just venting

so far
endlinks have been replaced
sturts will be replaced tommorow
windshield has been replaced
cat i pulled it off looked at it and is completely hollowed so ill leave it as is.
just ordered my timing belt crap

 

Damn! Maybe I shouldn't have complained about my broken axle!

 

yep Chu, if someone would of told me a story like this i wouldn't believe it , but its true

 

Dan, I think black would look good on your car. Contrast is a theme with the WW EVO X so it would be at home.

As for this drivers side suspension clunk, I gotta inspect.

 

Might have a bad control arm bushing also. I have a clunk in the front passenger. Have always had it since the day I bought the car. But it only clunks here and there. I'm going to ask R/T to look at it this week when I go in.

 

I hear a clunk in my front end, I was told it was the downpipe hitting the brace but I'm still not so sure. Somethings making noise...

 

just add some washers to the brace to drop it a few millimeters, thats what i did

 

i've always had a clunk/squeak from the front passenger side. dealership was useless. rt didn't find anything so i just let it go.

as for that issue with my car pulling to the right on the highway, turns out it was indeed a tire. i rotated them finally yesterday and the damn thing is pulling hard to the left now....hence my sudden interest in wheels. i have the stockers sitting in the garage that i believe i can get through summer with and then get snows for my stock wheels.

i am thinking about suspension mods now too. i would like some pros and cons to lowering springs vs. coilovers. here is what i got so far.

pro springs: less expensive, easier to install

con springs: not adjustable, possible bump steer

pro coilovers: fully adjustable

con coilovers: expensive, expensive to align, more difficult to install

i had more but can't come up with them right now.
